Photographer criticised

A photographer has come under fire in China for his pictures of a man falling off a bicycle.



The man came a spectacular cropper in Xiamen city after his bike hit a pot-hole submerged in rainwater.

But photographer Liu Tao was accused of lying in wait to take his pictures instead of warning people of the danger.



Readers of the Beijing Youth Daily, which published the shots, wrote in to express their feelings.

One wrote: "The pictures are well shot, but the person who shot this is disgusting. He knew there was a pit, but was waiting there for someone to fall over."



And another said: "The photographer should really be condemned since he knew there definitely would be other victims."

Liu defended himself, saying: "I just knew that the city government has paved the pit, and without my pictures, the pit would not be noticed by the government, and there would perhaps be more people falling over."
Klopf, klopf!

Wer ist dort?

Unterbrechende Kuh.

Unterbrech...

Muh!!!

What's so sick about it? It's a man falling off a bike for Christ's sake. Not a child getting blown up by a hand grenade. Jesus. Can you lighten up a little bit, and get out of my ass?

It's not sick. It's entertaining. I'm sure he lived.

Those pics kind of reminded me of another set of pics from a couple years ago, where some lady thought she was driving through a puddle and it turned out to be a sinkhole... LOL

She's probably wondering how she is going to get her dead husbands body out of the trunk without being seen. biggrin
