Arresting Images While the artistry of photographers like Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz, and Yousuf Karsh provides the images of the powerful that will go down in history, TSG actually prefers the work of some more obscure shutterbugs. We’re talking about the countless clerks, cops, and sheriff's deputies who handle the impromptu photo shoots with the rich and famous who’ve landed in the pokey.
My favourite would have to be Nick Nolte's mug shot.
There's also a mug shot of Bill Gates - 'Microsoft boss Bill Gates was photographed by the Albuquerque, New Mexico police in 1977 after a traffic violation (details of which have been lost over time).' - (I'm just sure they were lost over time. heh. The only reason the photo didn't get lost over time is likely because he thought he looked kind of cool in it. heh.)
