That's a good picture. I'm glad Michelle left her boob belt in the closet that day.

Surprised Obama isn’t subliminally giving the camera a middle-finger.

While the photo itself is actually very nice, the composition is all wrong...how did a famous photo like Annie allow the white on white clothing side by side?

Impressive pic.. clothes must have been picked out by someone else. Although the bottom of michelle’s dress reminds me of a comforter. (obligatory clothing comment, because they’re always on these types of threads)

:)

I love seeing how siblings can take after one or the other of their parents. My two girls look more similar to each other than Sasha and Malia do to each other. All very cute though.

It would have looked better if M was wearing something lighter in color. The black dress is too much of a contrast to the white that the other two are wearing. Evidently that's what the photog wanted.

Knowing just the very little about photography that I do, I’d say that’s a GREAT picture! Given ambient lighting, contrast, clothing - really good job, if not on the front end, on the back end with photoshop or whatever. Of course for a family portrait of the President, nothing but the best will do. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming .....

That’ll look great on their “Happy Ramadan” cards this “winter holiday season”.
