A photographer and the photo that made the world weep

Kevin carter is a South African photojournalist. This photograph won the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography in 1994 and was taken by Kevin Carter while covering the famine in Sudan in 1993. The picture is a heart-distorting photo of a young girl struggling towards a united nation food camp a mile away. When he published this photo the reader reaction was intense and not all positive. Kevin Carter received heavy criticism following the publication of the photo in The New York Times. When a few months later, he won the Pulitzer Prize for the photo. By the end of July, 1994, he was dead.

The vulture is waiting for the girl to die and to eat her. The photograph was taken by South African photojournalist, Kevin Carter

As with many dramatic photographs, Carter came under criticism for these shots.

I think Kevin carter was died because of these pictures.

Best Animation Film I’ve ever seen

“Snow white and the seven dwarfs” I love this movie. It is very timeless. This is a very good movie. It’s a traditional animation film. It's amazing to think it was made in 1937 and was the first Disney animated feature film I have ever seen. There is no sex, profanity, violence and something like that. There are soft mystical themes as Snow White’s wicked stepmother consults a magic mirror, hence the saying, ‘Mirror, mirror, on the wall’

This movie has it all and it’s a traditional hand-drawn animated film.

I personally believe that “Snow White” is a fun fantasy film for people of all ages. I really think it’s a very nice movie, and kids love to watch it.
