What's Wrong With This Photo?


Photo: Vernon Bryant / Dallas Morning News

The photo above, taken by Vernon Bryant for Dallas Morning News, depicts the bravery of Dallas Fire-Rescue officials warning residents of West Dallas of flooding (and if necessary, rescuing them) when a pump station failed (Source).

It's the staple stuff of newspapers - local news and such - so if you're wondering why it's on this blog, take a closer look at the photo. Go ahead. Don't see it yet? Take another look. We'll wait - you'll get it ...


yeah.... those guys are lame.. they should be walking around in that water that is flooding the streets and mixed in with the sewer system..they should be wading around in that stuff all day helping people...

hmm, it is a Shaolin trained Dog, maybe a Ninja Dog. Just like those Asian movies where walking on the water surface is possible. Who knows.

Nothing out of the ordinary, really. Rescuers paddle on lifeboats simply because they can't see how deep the muddy water is ahead of them. Just happens that the photo was shot in shallow water zone.

It's called an "oar", berdugo.

I don't get the big deal over the dog. I was looking closely for something funny or unusual, like Bigfoot in the background. So, they're in fairly shallow water. Big whoop.

So...it would be smarter and much faster if they tried to walk through the standing water, right?

The dog is smarter than the person who posted this.

No no, I think Shaun got it with "It’s a Jesus dog!"

I remember a funny bit on the news when a blizzard hit my area (USA). They said they were reporting from a university upstate when they were clearly filming from across the local college around the corner. I actually suited up and went out; at least they were (@#$# it!) doing it live. I hurried in to create some obstreperous sign but thought better of it.

Beakman, Please, if you are going to use English, don't have run together sentences, piss poor punctuation, and an arrogant attitude.

Also, you are not funny. Bit more than pretentious in my opinion.

Start your own blog so we can ignore you there as well as here.

Beakman, stfu.

You really aren't amusing and you are very childish. So you go back to staring at your self in your mirror while you mentally masterbate. You really sound like you have issues with, what you perceive to be, a lack of attention toward you.

You know, it may seem lame at first glance, but skimming along in a raft is a much faster way to traverse even a few inches of water - remember what it feels like to sludge-sludge-splash-sludge through water? That could get old real fast if you're going door-to-door. Kudos on the raft! :) The doggy knows -- he's wanting to hitch-hike. :)
