Thanks for that link, Richard. Isn't it just a classic portrait?

Here's another deconstruction of the photograph from the Middle East.

Mind you, to me, the photo evokes one of those irascible tour busdrivers 
that we used to get when I was involved with the Irish running team and we 
were about to head off into the mountains from some foreign airport to get 
to some race venue high in the hills. Just before we'd drive off and up some 
terrifying twisty alpine pass, he'd turn around and give the contents of the 
bus (us) a look like that, as if to say, "Are you all with me?".

In the case of Mr. Trumputin, the answer is probably "No" :-)

Douglas
