York Photographer Rob Cook FBIPP FMPA QEP got stung whilst working for a client.


York Photographer Rob Cook FBIPP FMPA QEP got stung whilst working for a client recently. Although it was physical pain, not financial pain he endured. Rob Takes up the story.

“I was shooting some pictures for a specialist scientific picture library of bees and beekeeping. Despite wearing the full spaceman suit I still got stung on the cheek, when I held the camera to my eye (it pushed the mesh up against his face). It must be 25 years since I got stung last, and I’d forgotten how much it hurt. I carried on by holding the camera at arms length, and shooting like a tourist, I managed to get some good shots”
