Tim Walker: Killed: Sometimes - and in my experience, thankfully, rarely - one's pictures are "killed" by the editor of the magazine that commissions you. This is heartbreaking. All the effort you've given to a series is dropped. Left on the cutting room floor. There's a myriad of reasons as to why this happens. Here are some memorable killed photographs that none of you will ever have seen.

In these portraits, TIME magazine asked me to photograph their people of the year. It was an extraordinary opportunity to make portraits from a list of people I felt entirely deserved celebration. Then at the very last minute TIME added a name onto the list that I wasn't sure about. I was tempted... but wasn't sure I was comfortable photographing this person, nor whether they deserved celebrating.
