My work, on the BBC News website...

The BBC asked me if they could use one of my pictures and I said yes:

Check it out!

Of course someone has already commented on Flickr that they aren't Honey Badgers at all, but are in fact Coatis, so I don't know how long it'll be before they get removed...

Oh well

..::EDIT::..

My picture and credit has been removed. If anyone has an unrefreshed version of the page up on their machine and can screenshot it for me I would really appreciate it, mine's gone...

Shame they didn't give you a credit - or have I missed it?

Also - those Iraqis are a suggestible lot aren't they?*

*No that you couldn't easily find equally credulous folk in the UK, of course.

Thanks!

Gone now though...

And they did credit it for as long as it was there - very cool about it.

Thanks!

Gone now though...

Bum!

Cool! How did they find it? Are they paying you?

Thanks!

They found it through Flickr, no fee but a full credit and it's gone now, 'cos it's not a picture of a Honey Badger after all.

That's pretty cool, getting fame on the BBC.

Weird story though!

...and it's gone. Sorry, mate.

Ah, well, 15 minutes of fame!
Nice one Ol!

Damn, unlucky dude, we were all stoked for you though!

Next time! :)

Sorry to hear your picture and credit disappeared but congratulations that they used it in the first place - excellent news!
