    For some reason, Michelle Obama looks more beautiful in that picture than I think she's ever looked.

    Well done, First Family.

    Its been almost a year, and yet when I see a photo of them altogether like this I still do a double take in amazement that this family actually lives in the White House. And I'm going home in two weeks to a place where a significant part of the population sees this photo as their worst nightmare come to life. America is a crazy, wonderful place.

    This is weird, or maybe not so weird, but what popped into my head when I first saw this picture was the famous Iwo Jima flag-raising photo. It has the same kind of connectedness, the same kind of cooperative action, and a sort of "en media res" arrest that makes me think of rising ambitions.

    I think it's a really lovely photo, and the kids are friggin' adorable, but wouldn't it have made more sense to photograph the family against a lighter background? Isn't there a room in the White House with yellow or peach wallcoverings? #annieleibovitz

    The First Family portrait is so good that it cancels out the most recent American family portrait beamed around the world. #annieleibovitz
