Whose being GL0RIFIED here ? A Man who apparently stood for 20 mins to take a photograph (just a photograph) instead of helping the little girl himself .
ReplyDeleteMoreover, Vultures dont eat humans unless dead.
They seldom attack living creatures.
No one iz being GLORIFIED here.
ReplyDeleteIts just for appreciating the work done by the photographer who reached there and showed us the reality of life,while we are sitting in our air conditioned homes eating delicacies,people are suffering in different parts of the world.
Photographers ought to have STORY-TELLING capabilities ! Stories that SELL. You and Me dont know the truth . And if sources are to be beleived, he dint help the little girl eat .. nor did the vulture attack her.. the girl survived by crawling her way to nearby relief camp !
ReplyDeleteThe st0ry he t0ld was true and till then hidden from rest of the world,he had to express the whole story in photographs,very few have time to read a book on human sufferings.
