I'm not a news photographer but...

I attended last week's Tea Party rally at the Salt Lake City Federal building. The top photo is one I took of a couple standing next to me. The photo on the bottom is one my local paper, the Deseret News used on their front page the next day (see photo 4 in the on-line article). It seems to me the DesNews had opportunity to take a better shot, as evidenced by the shot I took. Perhaps the photographer or editor wanted a more unobstructed view of the period costumes, but this unflattering pose was the best they could do?

The people who read blogs are the lucky ones, obviously. I think you should send it to DesNews and show them what a good photograph looks like.
