Churchill

25 November 2013

Near the end of Winston Churchill's life there was a photo - quite famous at the time but now difficult to find - of Churchill setting with his back to the camera.  When the photographer had approached him to take his photograph Sir Winston turned his back and sat facing away signifying that he did not want another damn photographer snapping away but the canny photographer took his picture anyhow.  It was displayed in newspapers and magazines everywhere (the equivalent of 'going viral' today).
