 The text describes two photographers, Lisa Vaz and Nick Ng, who captured stunning images of a man washing his feet in the Hooghly River in Kolkata, India. The scene was dramatic, with more than 10 firefighters needed to extinguish flames that engulfed one-third of the ground floor of a property. The fire was caused by a cooker left unattended. Fortunately, no one was injured, but the family had to survive on sandwiches. A London Fire Brigade spokesperson emphasized the importance of keeping pets away from naked flames or cookers. Other photos show a charred car seat, a burnt kitchen, and a person collecting wood for a cattle fence in Ethiopia.
