1. Han was pushed into the track by a passerby and wasn't able to pull himself out. when the photographer came by he tried to use the flash and warn the train and didn't try to help him out. the photographer was able to take the photo because he didn't help out the poor man.
2. the photographer said he took the photo to use the flash in order to stop the train and hopes that the train would see it.
3. no i don't think the photographer should have taken the photo. He should have tried harder to lift the guy out of the train track.
4. The photographer could have done more to help Han. He could have gotten more people to help or tried harder to lift him out. Han died and the photographer just stood there and took a picture.
5. I disagree with their decision to put it on the page because Putting the photo on the front cover makes the situation sound like it was okay to chose a photo over life.
6. to a photojournalist capturing the images of life as it happens is probably more important because thats their job. If they tried to stop all bad situations from happening then there would be no pictures of the terrible stuff because they would be too busy tying to put an end to all the bad things.
7. There are self-portraits where the photographer is in the photo him/herself. but in photojournalism the photographer is trying to capture life as is and not inter fear.
8. No i think if a situation like this happens where its a life or death situation then they should help first and then maybe try to photograph it. I think this would have been a much more powerful image if the photographer got someone else to lift Han out and then shot the saving of his life.
9. I still think the photographer should have tried harder to get the guy out and shouldn't have got the photo at all.
