Review of one famous photograph

Sudan Famine

This picture shows the Sudan Famine . It is one of the Pulitzer Prize winner in 1994 . In the picture you can see a famine afflicted child who crawls towards the food camp of United Nations located a few meters away . There is also one vulture which seems to be longing for the child to die in to eat the child 's body right away . What happened to the child is still unknown as to whether she successfully reached the food camp or died in the vulture 's claws

Kevin Carter

is a South African Photojournalist who took the picture The photo is very controversial because the photojournalist can be considered as another vulture in the picture . This photograph was Published in The New York Times and The Mail Guardian on March 26 1993 . Carter made commentaries about his product since many criticisms came out saying he could have helped the little girl by chasing the vulture right away . He was then too busy finding the best angle and adjusting his camera 's lens instead of lessening the suffering of the poor child

Upon seeing the picture , I personally find it interesting . But then I am really disd with the photographer who took the picture . Time really counts in that breath taking scene . Seeing the condition of the child , there could have something more important things to do than taking pictures . It is one historical photograph how famine is really experienced during those times at that region of the earth . I feel sorry for the child who met two vultures that time . The true vulture who wanted to satisfy his minimalistic need to eat and the other vulture who chose to find the best angle than help the child . I feel so blessed of what I have right now because of this picture . I value life even more and I made a promise to myself not to become either one of the vultures present during that time...
