1. This photo makes me think that this boy is so thin and ghastly looking that even the vulture is tempted to eat him. The point being made is possibly that there is inadequate living conditions in Sudan. It grosses me out that children can look this way.
2. The image looks as if there is a small African American boy keeling over because he is so incredibly starving. The vulture behind him looks like he is ready for the boy to kick the bucket at any minute, ready to spring on his pray.
3. I think the message is to appreciate what one has, since others are much less fortunate. Along with that, to lend a hand, send food, money, or bring your services to Sudan to help the people who cannot afford or do not know how to raise children properly. The photo is supposed to make you reflect and possibly try to persuade you to have a purpose in life.
4. My reaction to this photograph has changed quite a bit after hearing that the man had committed suicide. He was probably so moved by the sadness he has seen that he could not bare it. Also, the fact that the child was only a kilometer away from this camp makes me wonder how nobody knew what happened to him. I had foreseen the fact of the vulture waiting for the boy to die, but with hearing the after-effects of it really changes my emotion to a deeper sadness.
