Looking through the images again in the "This Is Britain" category, it strikes me that many of the images have indeed got a certain unique look to to them. I wonder just how many hundreds of the entries in that category came under a "photo cliche" heading.
I therefore presume that many of the shortlisted images made the cut because they are different. They do not fit in with the usual expectations and are therefore showing a degree of innovation, and a somewhat unusual choice of subject.
In picking out one image in particular, that of the guys having a good old beano. I have to say that shot might be somewhat hard to get. Forget the subject matter. Just imagine the the difficulties. Quite apart from camera techniques, there would be the matter of framing several guys the worse for wear, who would not be sitting still or posing.
