As a photographer, you always need to keep an eye on your surroundings. Especially when you are standing on a moving object. That can be difficult when you are busy taking photos and your view is limited by your viewfinder.
Sports photographer Nuri Margui was photographing the players of Spanish Girona FC while they were riding on top of an open-top bus.

A low branch pushed the photographer off the bus, but luckily she was grabbed just in time by players from the football club.
In the video, you can also see how police officers from the police bus driving behind them quickly sprang into action to catch the photographer if she did fall. Luckily, the footballers managed to pull Nuri back on board.
Miraculously, Nuri also managed to hold on to her camera throughout all this. Both she and her camera were unharmed.
A good reminder once again that, as a photographer, you should always keep a close eye on your surroundings.
