I won’t bore you with the technical details but simply make the point that a well-composed photo is useless to the media if the quality of the image is poor.
Before you send a photo to a newspaper or magazine, zoom in on a detail of the shot. Does the image still look sharp and clear? If not, the chances are that the publication will not be able to use the image.
A high-resolution image does not have to be a huge file. Indeed, many reputable media organisations still have computers that crash if you try to email them megabytes of imagery. It is possible to send a photo of, say, 500kb that will look great on newsprint.
