- 20. Personal ResponseWhat I personally liked so much about this photograph was that:It conveys the message and true reality of what many brave Canadian men and women had to go through to bring and end to the Gulf WarIt shows the ugly side of war, and therefore it will increase peoples opposition to future warsWhat caught my imagination was that:This pictures shows firefighters covered in oil and therefore made me imagine the suffering which oil can cause do to man’s intrinsic greed
