On the Receiving Side

partyprofessor:

March 1993, Sudan. A vulture watches a starving child, awaiting its death. The image was subject to much criticism, some condemning photographer Kevin Carter for taking a photograph rather than helping the child. Carter always maintained that he shooed the vulture away after he took the photograph. He won a Pulitzer Prize for this image. Carter committed suicide soon after.
