Kevin Carter Photography

The picture that lead him to death This is Kevin Carter’s Pulitzer winning photograph that 3 months later he committed suicide from. It really tells a story when I look at it I almost start to cry. This photo is of a little girl being stalked by a vulture on her way to united nations food camp. After he took this photo Kevin Carter left the scene leaving the little girl helpless. Three months later, on July 27,1994,he committed suicide due to depression.
