温哥华冰球球迷骚动情侣于暴乱中当街甜蜜拥吻

Following the riots in Vancouver, one photo was shared more than the rest among users of Twitter and other social media. It shows a young couple tangled in each other's arms on the street, kissing, while the police and mayhem-makers clash all around them.

之前温哥华冰球队在决赛中失利，引起了球迷骚乱，暴徒放火抢劫，警察不得不使用催泪瓦斯。不过有张现场照片引起了更大的关注，照片上一对情侣倒在地上，不是受伤了，而是在拥吻。

"I was trying not to get my ass kicked," says Vancouver freelance photojournalist Richard Lam, who took the photo, when asked if he'd stopped to talk to the couple.

温哥华自由摄影师Richard Lam被问到有没有去跟这对情侣说话时，说：“没有，我还得留神注意自己的安全呢。”

Indeed, it was a hectic, and unexpected, path that led to the photo, he explains: "I was shooting the game - and me and another photographer decided to go. By the time I got out there it was out of control."

当时现场的确一片混乱，摄影师回忆说：“我正在拍摄比赛，之后决定还是离开比较好。我逃脱的时候那边已经失控了。”

Lam got the shot, and several more, and didn't think much of it. He returned to the media room at Rogers Arena, where his editor took his memory card and imported it. "I didn't even look at it. A colleague said 'nice photo'. Then I went back to the editing room, and looked at it. My jaw dropped."
