4. Now That's a Shot for BagNews Notes

I never realized how much photographers think of these things until I read that site. But they obviously do.

10. Thanks, I'd not heard of that site before. Their take on the Merkel

episode is great reading:

Really, it doesn't much matter if Bush actually conceived his "massage strike" on the German Chancellor when he entered the room, or it just came over him at the last instant. The interesting thing is that Bush -- pre-set to carrying out his "prankish" agenda -- registers not an iota of change in his demeanor (shots #2 - 4). There's no time, you say? That's not true, however -- especially given the fact Bush was physically connected to Merkel's body. (In comparison, just look at the range of movements, actions and, especially, reactions Merkel goes through in those 3 or 4 seconds.)

As much as one can tell, however, Bush physically and emotionally "stays the course." Merkel couldn't have given Bush a more extreme cue if she had jumped out of her seat, or thrown back her arms and clipped Bush in the nose. The example is no different in the larger world, by the way. Political situations can shift and react as suddenly, dramatically and unexpectedly, and Bush wouldn't deviate (from his at one time impulsively determined, and then fixed agenda).
