1. The man had been pushed onto the tracks by another. The man that had been pushed onto the tracks was only trying to calm another down, but him falling to the tracks had led to his death by a subway. He was trying to escape the tracks and couldnt. There was a photographer at the scene and apparently had tried helping by using the flash towards the train conductor hoping that the conductor would stop, in him trying to flash the conductor he captured a couple images of the scene.
2. He said he took the photo because he was trying to help the man by using the flash of the camera.
3. Like the comments say, i dont think shooting a flash at the direction of the conductor will indicate stop. Also I dont think taking a picture of someones death is a very great idea, especially when right there and could probably save the person. So no, i think the picture shouldnt have been taking.
4. I think the photographer didnt know what to do so he just started to take pictures. Its not the best idea, i think he couldve done something better.
5. I disagree with putting this image on the newspaper. I feel like they couldve used something else. Like a picture of the empty subway. Yes the image is eye catching but the image is showing something that shouldnt be publicly announced like that.
6. I feel like stopping bad things from happening is a more important thing to do. You could not only save a couple people or things but also yourself. An there is always another journalist to do a report on whatever it is.
7. I think the photographer should not be involved. They should just stay behind the camera and stick to what they know. If they do get involved, then who knows where the may end up.
8. I believe they should avoid influencing events, just take the picture as it is happening, as if the photojournalist isnt even there.
9. The appropriate thing to do is just keep it cool and keep living with what the people say. If they feel as if they did the right thing then they should be fine. If it gets to them then just go see or talk to someone.
