Expensive Recovery by eggman

I don't think the recovery was what interested them, but what to do with it afterwards.
From your comments I gather you have a series from this incident. Did you sell them to a newspaper?

I would agree with mlorne's reply and go one step further. Everything in the photo has definite harsh edges, if you want to provide a romantic edge put something like a crumpled fluffy woollen blanket or a womans jumper just on one edge and most definitely reduce the overexposure from the fire.

If it is a phone box you want to take a photo of get the whole box, if it is the hills in the background get the hills. But is your are trying to do landscape move far enough away so that the total photo is in focus eg learn about DOF.
But then again you could be just looking for sympathy and using any c**p photo to get it.
