Photographing a Wedding and then an Earthquake
Zem sa zachvela počas ich svadby (Sichuan, Čína)…
Fotograf práve zachytával najšťastnejší deň zamilovaných, keď zrazu udrelo zemetrasenie o sile 7,9 a dĺžkou trvania 3 min. zrovnajúc kostol so zemou, z ktorého len pred malou chvíľou vyšli.
Akoby zázrakom, každý z 33 hostí prežil.
