...The Rag, doing my old job on a freelance basis for a couple of weeks. Now, I set myself
a project some time ago, which was to try an slip photos past the subs which had been modified in some way. I grafted a shark's fin - approaching a group of people in a river - onto a picture ages ago; but it got cropped out. I gave the sports editor a moustache in a photo where he was handing over a trophy, and had to have a 'talking to' by the editor after a complaint was made by the head sub.
Today I was asked to "cut the fingers off" a young chap in a group photo, who was making a two-fingered sign at the camera. Which has given me a great idea. I am going to see how many amputees I can create for the paper over the course of the next two weeks.
If anyone thinks that this is in poor taste, feel free to
fuck off make alternative suggestions.
