Can You Spot The Difference? Chicago Tribune VS. Sun-Times Covers After The Cubs’ World Series Win

ADVERTISEMENT

After a long 108 years, the Chicago Cubs finally won the World Series on Wednesday! But that’s not the only thing that got people talking lately… What has shocked a lot of people is the difference between the cover photos published by two huge Chicago newspapers – the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times.

Back in 2013, the Chicago Sun-Times dumped its entire staff of full-time photographers to work with freelancers instead. The Chicago Tribune, on the other hand, still has its own staff of photographers. Feasibly, these different views on photography may be the reason why the cover photos of these two newspapers are so shockingly different. People are going to Twitter to discuss the differences. See for yourselves below!

    That may be due whoever re-photographed the printed paper. The image is on their site http://store.chicagotribune.com/history-made-the-cubs-historic-2016-season.html

    Clearly this person simply doesn't have the equipment necessary to photograph on fields of this size. Plus the fact that he simply wasn't standing on the right side, and you can't just run across the field. It takes careful planning, a bit of luck and investments.

    Yep. Just because you have a camera, it does not make you a good photographer.
