TALL POPPY SYNDROME.

We all know how the Brits love an underdog, but we also know how once they reach the top we love nothing better than to watch them fall. Of course not everyone is like this, just most of us..
I certainly wasn't aware that there is a term for such awfulness, but 'Tall Poppy Syndrome' is rampant here in the UK and probably no more so than amongst photographers. In fact, I would put photographers right up there with actors, writers, and club singers..

I bet you've already made a list..
