Huan72 687 Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Really does make you realise what its all about. Simple things like walking the hills under a clear star filled sky are so easily taken for granted. I think I need to actually realise how lucky I am,...........................the key to happiness really is making the most of every moment................cheesy I know but so true ............................great find and really inspiring pics. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its_grim_up_norf 577 Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 i thought it could turn into a good thread if we add to it. This is a photo taken by photographer kevin carter in 1993 in sudan. He won the pulitzer prize for his work and the photo went global in a matter of hours, even in the time before facebook and twitter it didnt take long to make its way around the world. Nobody knows the fate of the little girl and wether she made it to the feeding centre in time, he couldnt do much while he was there due to the vast poverty but they werent allowed to touch the children through fear of transmitting diseases. Consumed with the violence he'd witnessed and haunted by the little girl's fate, he committed suicide 3 months after winning the Pulitzer Prize. It remains today to be one of the most powerful photos Ive ever seen. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
