News photography is inseparable from the context. If it were 2 ordinary people the picture would be nothing, but to have a picture of these 2 laughing together would have been unthinkable even a few months ago. When you look back over the events of the last 40 years it seems almost impossible to think that this could happen and that these 2 people could be leading it together.
