lilDevil 2 #1 February 11, 2009 With the bush fires in VIC, there has been a large loss of life, this Image makes you think of the animals that have also lost its so sad. They are talking of charging the arsonists with murder if they catch them. I HOPE THEY DO !``````````````````````````````````` " Cant keep a good woman down " Angels have wings, but devils can fly !

Teigen 0 #2 February 11, 2009 Saw that earlier today! such a moving photo! The coala was obviously crying out for help! and in stead of acting aggressive or limping off, it let the firefighters approach it! but unfortunately they say thousands of animals may have perished.. As for animal photos. Here is one i shot in January of 08.. Took a while to get, but i did, eventually :) ClicketyClick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm all for finding angels during a tragedy, but if the angel it's photoshopped, it just kinds of spoils it... Where is this all leading to???

airdvr 210 #10 February 11, 2009 While this is a terrible tragedy can someone explain how that many people died? I'm serious here. I don't know squat about the dynamics of a wildfire but it would seem to me that you would see it coming and get the hell out.Please don't dent the planet.
