Celebrating excellence in the field of local newspaper photography
Oxford Times: Anger over wind turbine plans

Local news photographers are hugely skilled and poorly paid, and get sent to photograph miserable people gurning at uncooked meat products. Here, we celebrate their work.

Readers' Comments: "jelow", Tues 10/11/09 - "I live in Reading, and everytime I pass the wind turbine I feel a great sense of pride"
Leaving aside whether "jelow" meant to write "turbine". just what is it about Reading...city(not yet) of the damned???
No - the people of Reading are still attached to the town's fabled (and sadly extinct) Whitley Whiff. Every time they guff, tears well up in their eyes.
