Suicidal

[Overbeyond]

Although I appreciate and encourage all art (including photography and music) that takes risks and delves into controversial topics, I don't agree with the fact that this photograph was even taken. As it was said in the previous comment, your time would have been better spent getting help. This is also assuming that your friend was indeed suicidal, and not just posing for the picture...

Personally I am pretty confident that the subject and the person with the camera were both posing and attention seeking in this instance.

There was a picture posted here not long ago, that was not as graphic, but got similar responses. At least that one was admittedly posed.

Personally I find the remarks posted as a description of the picture to be what's appalling here. So fine, an "opportunity" was seen and taken. Yippee...the photo has some impact. But you haven't heard from your friend in a few days, you know he's suicidal, and you "hope he's okay"??

Alrighty then.
