Sorry Pierre, didn't mean to upset you. The World is a tough old place eh?
No one-upmanship intended btw; in fact, the first words of my post were "Equally moving..." implying a parity in the visual effect of the tragedies that occurred in different parts of the World and for differing reasons.
I just thought that anyone on the forum who hadn't seen
Kevin Carter's Pulitzer prize winning image might be interested. The picture was taken in 1994 and it has had extensive exposure on the internet.
I empathise with your reaction. When I first saw the
image it made quite an impact on me; I suspect it will make an impact on others too.
The thread title seemed to offer appropriate warning.
