[Drunken Irishman]

I think it looks great! I like this one better than his first.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Yes!

[underthematrix]

2. Love it!! It's got that whole "How you like me now" going on :)

[TxDemChem]

18. You are so right

Not cocky, but self-confident

[Graybeard]

3. Portrait Of A Winner.

I agree 100% that this is a great photo.

Congratulations Mr. President !

[jenmito]

4. "In your face. I WON. Again." n/t

[Number23]

12. That's exactly what it looks like to me too. Nothing defensive about it, as I saw some other folks

wondering because of the crossed arms.

The whole thing says "yeah, I won. AGAIN."

[Agschmid]

5. Very nice... navy suit, good pic! n/t

[Hekate]

6. Love it. That smile should go down in history.

[msanthrope]

7. "You mad?" nt

[Cha]

8. rofl

[Brigid]

9. Oh, they mad.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

17. They stay mad!

[ReRe]

10. POs Second Portrait!

...Thanks DI! I hadn't seen it yet. His arms crossed says "getting shit done", his smile is to all Americans, but especially to all Americans who reelected him. His whole face exudes joy.
That right there truly is History. I'm so proud of him!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

11. This man means business!

[Ilsa]

13. I've seen a couple of poorly-taken pix of the FLOTUS

over the last two days. The lighting is too top-down, casting a shadow below her lovely cheekbones, which creates a suggestion of a beard. She needs some soft up-lighting, IMO, to keep the color consistent all over her face.

I like her new hairstyle! She looks great with the bangs and soft framing around her face.

And the President's smile can't be beat!

[MindandSoul]

14. He looks GREAT! Older, but somehow more self assured and almost joyful!

[iandhr]

15. His hair will be white by the time he leaves office on 01/20/17

[davidpdx]

26. I agree, another 4 years will do it

Much like Clinton when he left office. Clinton's hair went completely white.

[Politicub]

16. Love it and

our president!

[Historic NY]

19. A little snow on the roof...but I like it better

[NYC Liberal]

20. Personally I like "salt and pepper" hair. Makes people look a bit "wiser"!

Grey/silver hair is beautiful imo.

[Union Scribe]

23. +1

And his face has really stood up to the tolls of his office. Four years of that and I doubt I'd even be able to smile, but his is tremendously natural and unconquerable.

[NYC Liberal]

24. I agree. I think he has aged just the perfect amount.

He looks older and wiser, rather than tired and worn down.

[Swamp Lover]

21. Far out!!!! His watch face says "4:20"!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just kidding.

I know it's Bull, but this is how internet rumors get started.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

22. "You like me! You really, really like me!"

[Carla in Sequim]

25. I'll always have the image of the first portrait with me

for the rest of my life.

Two years ago, at the VA in Long Beach, Ca. a 'routine' knee replacement requiring a 4-day stay turned into a nightmare. He got hospital pneumonia the next morning and was immediately taken to critical care and for nine days I watched my fabulous husband of 32 years fight for his life.

23 days after that, I took him home. Each day of that month as I entered and left the main tower, that portrait helped me. I can't put into words the comfort it gave me. Strength and resolve maybe.

The new portrait reflects how I feel now. It's wonderful.
