We took a liking to this contribution from Jashim Salam, of children watching from above as firefighters work to extinguish a blaze in the Bangladeshi city of Chittagong. The fire’s smoke, normally a tad frightening, manages to seem almost whimsical as it drifts up past the kids and into the shafts of light.

Children from Chittagong,Bangladesh were simply watching this fire smoke by natural manner.
It shows their attitude to see any mysterious happens on sudden occasions.
good photgraph.
Thanks to this website for photography students.
When some people perceive a remote danger, they never know it is coming closer than ever before it is too late to escape. In mid-1980s, residents of the top floor building in Hong Kong were overlooking from balcony with curiousity what they saw a fire that broke out from a ground shop but chose to stay put.
The fire spiralled up inside the lift shaft to the 16th top floor where lift doors left open for repair, burning everything to ashes, including the onlooking residents. It was the only place where casualties lie.
