My Favorite Cover

Bloomberg Businessweek, November 12-18, 2012: "The Next Four Years"This portrait is of President Obama and how they think he will look at the end of this term. The marker of the magazine is saying that stress from the term will make him age. The photo is nice because it only focus's on Obama's face aging.
