cant post pics,but another one that stuck in my mind was from the daily record day of dunblane. reporter snapped pic of the parents outside gates not knowing if there kids were alive or dead.

looking at these pics i got thinking how i would react towards a reporter invading my grief or misery.but you wouldnt see some of the iconic pics if they didnt.

 

oh and dont mean some prat with camera phone who seem to film any f***ing mishap they come across.lol there first thought is jewtube hits rather than seeing if they can help.

To me they are incredibly moving images, they mark a real scientific success with huge philisophical implications. I stand in awe of the shear power but at the same time a feeling of guilt that the true purpose of these devices is the mass and indiscriminate destruction of life.

Ive often thought the same , in some cases why dosent the camera crew pack in filming and help ?

Seen it many of times where they keep snaping away rather than help , surely it comes down to human decency

I genuinely believe a lot of these people feel it their duty to do exactly that.
