Final Extra Credit

1. The man was being harassed and was pushed and fell over the tracks edge. The photographer was able to capture the photo because he ran just in time as the train was coming but did not help him.
2. Because the photographer was unable t help the man himself, he thought that using the flash from his camera would be a warning sign to the train.
3. I don't think the photographer should of of taken photos, instead he should of attempted to help the man.
4. I think the photographer could of done more by trying to lift him out so that the man could of possibly lived but then again the train was already there.
5. I think it was a cool picture to put on the cover and had an interesting story attached to it but it did also create hate and questions against the photographer.
6. I think the most important thing for a photojournalist is capturing images of life as it happens, because they know that life isn't perfect and they just can't capture the good things they see but they also have to get some bad. I also think that it's part of their job to get images like this.
7. I think it is acceptable for a photojournalist to get involved just because it is considered the right thing to do but then again it's their job to capture these types of situations.
8. I don't think photojournalists should always ignore serious situations like these but its understandable why they do.
9. I think the most appropriate response would be to take the picture because he already had to run to get the photograph and the train had already arrived so by the time he got their to try it would of been no help anyways.
