Digital BW, The Print

My father was a senior editor for NG and I have worked there summers when I
was in college. NG has very high standards for its photography. Maybe not
art, but certainly excellent photos. In fact, the key to having a story
published was the pictures. NG was quite happy to assign a writer to ghost a
story for good pix. Never sent a photographer to illustrate a story that was
submitted from a non-staffer.
