Extra Credit.

1. The man was pushed on to the railroad track, and the photographer happened to be there he decided he wasn't going to be able to save the man so he took pictures.

2. The photographer said he took the picture so that his flash would get the attention of the train driver so he would stop.

3. I don't think he was wrong to take the picture i just don't exactly agree with the picture being exposed publicly.

4. Personally, yes he is a photographer and his job is to take pictures, and I don't think he could have been any help to the man pushed on the tracks anyways, even if he wanted to.

5. I disagree with the publishing of this photo in the newspaper because it was a tragedy that harmed one not all and so i don't believe all needed to be informed so fully about this event in particular.

6. To me , it's taking pictures i mean that's their living and not everyone is capable of it, however everyone is capable of at least trying to help, so others can aid in the helping although photographers do however sometimes make the decision to help instead of capture.

7. Ethically maybe, but in my opinion i think it's necessary to choose whether you want to be part of the story or take the picture , depending on the importance of the situation.

8. Yes, because things may go different for the better or worse if they weren't involved and it is their priority to obtain the original scene.

9. it seems everyone needs to help first if there is an opportunity, then to take pictures second if not and to decide later whether it is necessary to publish such photos or not.
