Awesome author photo

I'm currently working my way through Ian Tattersall's new book, "Master's of the Planet" about human origins and paleoanthropology. The author photo is one of my all time favorites. The glass of red wine is the real flourish here. But really, the whole thing: I mean the museum storage room setting, the skeleton in the background, tiny fossil in hand, pen poised to take notes and the oh so serious gaze over the bifocals. Wish I could have found a larger version.
