Very true, a press photographer has a duty to show the good and the bad - however, I suspect that there would have been more mobile phones with cameras on that beach than professional photographers with a job to do.

Indeed this is awful.
Surely to goodness the police should have closed off that part of the beach and erected some sort of temporary covering. These children died in a tragic way and deserve some sort of respect, no matter who they were. ![]() Francesca |

Okay it's sad two kids died. And?
My cousin drowned years ago. I can assure you the beach wasn't closed. People didn't go home. You shake your head. If you're a parent you pull your kids out of the water.This was a public beach likely full of people. I bet many barely knew anything had happened. It happened at 2pm? Lunch time right. I wonder how many had wandered off to eat and came back hours later. The photographer wasn't there when it happened. He would have had to drive to the beach. |

The two bodies should have been taken away and not left on the beach. Had it been non Roma children would the same thing have happened??? I doubt it.

The only way I can cope with the implications of that photograph is to believe that the seated couple, sunbathing, were super-imposed. If the photo is genuine, then I cannot believe that they were Italians.
