在网上看到的一篇图片报道,在澳大利亚东南部维多利亚附近的丛林大火,已经造成近200人死亡,并且由于天气原因,完全扑灭还很难。这是澳大利亚历史上最大的一场森林大火,这绝对是一场大灾难!通常情况下,灾难发生时,总会有一些典型的新闻图片,一些甚是壮观,令人惊叹的照片出现。从摄影角度讲,这样的照片真的是难得 的佳作,但壮观,感叹的以及其背后的是生命和财产的巨大损失。我很美好的愿望是这样的大灾难不要发生,宁愿不要有这样的图片,但现实是这样的,这样的图片也能触动更多的人来关注,关心。

Bushfires in Victoria, Australia
The state of Victoria in southern Australia has recently been hit with hundreds of bush fires during a record-breaking heatwave – temperatures well above 38°C (100°F). Unfortunately, these fires have proved to be the deadliest in Australian history, with at least 166 deaths reported so far. The fires mostly appear to have been started by lightning – however a few appear to have been arson, and are under investigation – entire towns being declared crime scenes. Twenty-four fires are still burning, and authorities warn that the death toll will likely rise.

Walls of flame roared across southeastern Australia, razing scores of homes, forests and farmland in the sunburned country’s worst wildfire disaster in a quarter century.

More than 40 blazes raged across two states as a once-in-a-century heatwave pushed the mercury as high as 46 degrees Celsius (115 Fahrenheit) with fire bans in place across much of the south-east.

The wildfires have become the deadliest in Australia’s history, destroying entire towns and wiping out families and amid the heartache there was also anger as police revealed they suspected some of the fires were started by arsonists.

(前两天央视大楼也有着火,同天韩国也有大火,都是灾难,死人伤财,对任何人来说都不是好事,一些新闻图片,即使不是专业记者所拍,同样震撼,表现恰当。但同时,网络上有人把这灾难的图片恶搞,会让人觉得他思路挺敏捷的,还有那么点“创意”,但恶搞这样的灾难,就显得不那么恰当,发布在网络上更不恰当。毕竟,你表现出了对生命,财产损失的不在意。)
今日凌晨山西煤矿瓦斯爆炸,天灾不断。。。。
