Why dont photographers who take pics of starving kids in Africa, give them food?
I, too, have wondered about this. The photographer in question, by his own admission, actually stood there watching the vulture and the child for nearly 20 minutes HOPING THE VULTURE WOULD SPREAD HIS WINGS for photo! For 20 minutes he watched a starving child huddled a few feet away from a very well fed vulture and he just kept waiting for an even better photo. The UN relief center was a kilometer away and I cannot, for the life of me, understand why he didn’t snap the photo then HELP the child to the center. Rather, he left. When asked about the fate of this girl, he couldn’t answer. He simply didn’t know. He would say, to at least one reporter that he did “shoo” the vulture away, but he made no attempt to otherwise aid the young girl. And that, to me, is as alarming as the subject of world hunger: professional greed and selfishness.
