As an individual, amateur photographer, I might have looked for interesting shots relating to the response to the call, but would not have shot the body itself. That is just more than a little morbid for me, and kinda' disrespectful of both the deceased and his/her family.
If I were a news photographer, that would depend on the editorial policy of who I was shooting for. I am not sure I would work for a publication that made a point of publishing a lot of corpse photos, though. -Tom in SC John Coyle wrote: > What would you have done? > Yesterday, a young man died in the small park opposite where I live.
