3D Picture Discussion

PICTURE DISCUSSION

This picture depicts a scene of a relief operation taking place in a disaster struck location. It is most probably that this particular area of the country have been stucked by a natural disaster, such as floods, earthquake and even droughts. This could have been the after effect and the citizens there seek help from the red cross emergency-relief team.

In the centre of the picture, there is a guy as well as a lady dressed in shirts with the red cross symbol. They could be the red cross members sent there to aid in providing help, care and necessities. Behind the two red cross members, there is a huge pile of bags, which most probably contains the relief supplies provided to help improve the conditions within that area. The relief supplies seems to be distributed by a team in an orderly and systematic manner.

There is also huge group of people in front of the red cross members. They are most likely to be the victims of the natural disaster and their homes destroyed. They seem to waiting for instructions from the red cross members as to what they should do. They could also be a voluntear-rescue team setted up to help rescue those people trapped or in danger. Their faces hold expressions of fear and dispair. The natural disaster could have been a great blow to them and now they experience trauma of it.

Drawing my attention to the man pointing his finger towards a particular direction, he seems to be giving instructions to a young lad. From the looks of the young man, he seems to be paying full attention as to what the guy has to say to him. This is because a slightest mistake made now in this condition could make things bad to worse. He has to fully understand what he needs to do before setting off. What he does could also make a life and death difference.

I can also see that there are buildings that have been destroyed due to the wrath of mother nature. Roofs being blown off and walls collasped, leaving only the interior stucture, which seems vulnerable of collasping anytime.

I believe after which, temporary shelters would be set up and the more vulnerable people such as the young and the old could stay there for the time being, until full reparations comes in place. The red cross federation would also most likely send help in the job of vaccination, as diseases such as malaria and cholera, spreads most easily in these conditions.

This picture reminds of the two most recent natural disasters, cyclone nargis in Myanmar and the sichuan earthquake in China. This two natural disasters have claimed lots of lives and have caused huge damages. The speed in which help arrives is also very important, the longer the delay, the more lives lost. In all, the damages caused by such natural disasters is devastating and the death toll would be extremely high.
