The caption to this photograph explains that a well fed Sudanese man steals corn from a famished boy during a food distribution He decided to take pictures of the 1998 famine because at the time, the famine was not being taken care of, and he wanted people to realize what was going on so more people could help. In an interview with Tom Stoddart, he

says that all the pictures during the 1998 famine are produced in black and white, because "if you shoot i ln color, you can see the color of the clothes, but if you shoot in black and white, you can see the soul"
