Another interesting post for those out there looking to get your work published...
http://pdnpulse.com/2012/10/ppe-2012-what-photo-editors-want.html
"At the PhotoPlus panel “Your Picture Here: How to Get Published in The New York Times, Time, GQ and Wired” photo editors from all four publications spoke candidly about what photographers can do to get their attention. There were, of course, things specific to each publication. Carrie Levy of Wired, for example, noted that it’s difficult for her to hire photographers who shoot exclusively in natural light because the magazine has a look that demands poppy and highly produced images. Meanwhile, Krista Prestek said GQ likes photographers who have a fine-art sensibility and a strong body of work that demonstrates their ability to successfully fulfill assignments."

Good stuff: thanks. And from http://www.rogerandfrances.com/subscription/ps critique.html (on critiques):
A newspaper picture editor is going to give you different advice from a picture librarian, and an advertising photographer will give you different advice from a photojournalist. Any of them can probably give you good advice, but you need to be aware of their biases
Cheers,
