My first reaction when this happened was to take a couple of shots before realising I probably should rush to help him. Not sure if this showed my improved street photography instinct, or my reduced empathy...



Thanks for looking.

You're clearly a natural born photojournalist (and heartless brute! In a hat! ). What happened? Did he just trip?

It's totally wrong, but I do like this. The shadow on the right is the finishing touch. Was he OK?

 

[Jim Kuo]

His foot got caught by the bike chained to the railing accidentally, followed by smashing his face on the pavement.

The mannerism in which he responded to the situation was the most striking for me though. He said "that was very silly of me," and "I think I broke my tooth," in a calm and a matter of fact tone, while he was holding his broken front tooth with blood everywhere...

I did offer to help soon after and Priya offered him a tissue which he took.

Actually you could have said he was bum looking for cigarette butts.


I'll go with improved your instinct out of empathy. Nice photo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spot on Jim and you did the right thing. SHOOT first help later...I'm sure that if you asked any PJ they would tell you to tell the story, if you are hands on helping you ain't reporting!

Keep up the good work. Yo won't always be popular but you will be on here ;-)

Wanker! (Good work!)

sounds like a good solid Englishman's stiff upper lip response to me ... Self deprecation first hospitalisation only if entirely necessary ...
