Flaws Of Today's Society Exposed: 41 Illustrations By This Artist

This looks misrepresentative. The photographer (Kevin Carter) for the real photo did indeed wait for the right shot. The child's parents were nearby collecting food from a UN plane. When he took the photo he then chased the vulture away - it didn't get closer than about 10m. Carter, an experienced photojournalist in some of the world's most dangerous areas, committed suicide in 1994, haunted by his experiences and his own situation of poverty. Carter was viciously criticised for teh photo, but for me the despicableness comes not in the recording of suffering, but for turning a blind eye and "shooting the messenger" who insists we look.
