Platon Portraits
The New Yorker online has this terrific interactive portfolio piece by portrait photographer Platon. He photographed the world leaders outside the floor of the United Nations General Assembly in September. The portraits capture the essence of the individual, and the audio commentary by the photographer gives a insight to the process. It's well worth the look and listen.
