The Photographer

Young lady  who became  prey  of the Vulture 


Have you ever been a photographer ? If you say yes, How is your feeling about capturing a picture ?
There are many ways to explain about that ways, some times you feel satisfy or you feel want to find another object ( not satisfy ).

There is one inspired  story about Kevin Carter. Who is Kevin  Carter ? Kevin Carter is the greatest photographer ever there. He was born on 13 September 1960. He was the first photographer that in-charged to took a picture about " The Public Execution in South Africa ". His mission is simple, publish all of things happened and showed to reader. But there was a picture which became problem.
September 13, 1960 - July 27, 1994 


Picture in above show there was a young lady died and became the prey of the vulture. When Kevin was taking this photo he was unable did anything, Just shot and published it. With this picture Kevin won many achievements. If you all thinking that Kevin felt happy with the prize you are wrong !. couple day after won the achievement, he committed suicide.He very depressed and all of sudden swollen sedative with high dose.

From this story I can understand if, The Journalists job is high risk. You have to had a brave enough heart to visit many places either in neutral place or conflict place. Despite you have to brave enough to visit many places, your mind will divide into many things. Your must thinking about your self ( your safety, your healthy,etc)

But that all of obstacles will paid if you enjoyed your job. Kevin Carter was Inspiring me since the first time i liked a photograph. He gives me many lessons to take photographs , from loving your picture, until you can take responsibility with your picture .
All and all with Kevin Carter story, i can understand, the meaning of photography.

" Every time you take a photograph, it means you can captured every amazing moment on your life"
