Description

Another shot from the same graveyard in New Brunswick, Canada. When I saw it I shouted 'Stop!!' and Flavia almost had an attack, but slammed on the brakes.I can't repeat her language here on Rendo, however... Between a rain bout and the next one, last summer Canada offered us glorious skies, edging on the unbelievably spectacular ones such as thesse clouds hovering on this small cemetery, and dwarfing poor human artefacts such as the naive concrete angels. A reminder that we are as transient as the clouds above. A thought about Haity and the fights for a photo op in front of the cameras for NGOs, charities, rescue squads from different nations... and the usual hoarding of money, hoping that at least a mere five percent will reach those in need. Not to speak of those con artists exploiting other people's misfortune.My only hope, but I'm not very optimistic about that, is that the international agencies learn at least to build anti-seismic buildings, in order not to be beheaded and lose the command chain just when their organizational abilities are needed most. Sorry for my ranting, and thanks for your kind comments.

Molto bella questa foto ! Altrettanto bello quello che dici. Purtroppo quella povera gente non avra' mai quello che ilmondo intero invia e dovra' subire la smania di protagonismo di troppa gente che vede nella tragedia l'occasione per fare soldi.

Thank goodness you stopped, but poor Flavia obviously got a bit of a shock lol. That sky is indeed amazing and those gorgeous fluffy clouds look like soft cotton wool. Another superb pov and camera shot, very well done Sandra, hugs Jane xx

Beautiful sky! Lovely composition and capture. These tragedies bring out the best and worst in people including the media. Unfortunately since the media is a business, tied to the almighty dollar(or other currency), they cater to the desires of their public and strive for entertainment, even in its most grisly form. As far as those who exploit the misfortune of others, there are no words base enough to adequately describe them. Excellent image and words!
