This is intriguing image, Paul, why is he covering his eyes?

In the more "formal" pose he was looking up at the sky as though longing to be in his plane. The glare got to him and he rubbed his eyes. I always try and take some images when people aren't posing, as personally I often like them better. The covered eyes does give a sense of mystery to what would otherwise be a pretty standard photo. Thanks for your comment.
