The photograph of Republican presidential hopeful and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee with the razor blade hovering just above his face as he receives a shave at the Executive Forum Barbershop in Des Moines, Iowa appears to depict the candidate in a vulnerable position. However, following the results in Iowa, he is anything but. The photo only tells part of the story though, because he was not merely receiving a shave, but like most everything the candidates do in Iowa, he was doing it with an audience. In this case, a roomful of journalists, looking for a photo op:
I debated which image to include in this week's gallery, but decided to go
with the "close shave" image because it was the image that originally caught my
eye and made me curious to read the caption to find out what was going on.
What do you think? Do you agree? Got a favorite in the gallery? Let us know.
Please take a look at all of this week's compelling images in our Pictures of the
Week gallery.
