Images That Changed The World

An amazing collection of photographs. I am shocked at the intensity of these pictures.

Ritu,

Ritu,
That one was an excellent link. Kavi and I particularly liked the photo with the fireman holding the kid. It moved us a lot. Also did you know that there was a Kannada poem by Veerappa Moily called 'Hasivu' which was written with the photo of the hungry kid with a vulture in the background. It talks about the hunger of the photographer for a good photo, the hunger of the kid for some good food and the hunger of the vulture for the kid. The poem won an award.

Rajiv,

One of the things that i regret is, not having studied Kannada. I feel i have lost a lot, by not studying it. I can read, but very slowly.
I havent read the Poem, i will certainly look for it.

Ritu,
In one of my earlier comments here I had mentioned a movie called 'Runa' by Puttanna Kanagal. The movie's name was not Runa but 'Hangu'.
Again it is part of his 'Katha Sangama'.
