Hi,

The famous photo is on the front cover of McCurry's book 'Portraits',
published by Phaidon. On the back cover it shows what I assume is the
next frame he shot. She'd obviously realised what he was doing,
covered her face, and she looks to me as though she was giggling,
embarrassed, proud etc. I've seen the same look on people I've
photographed when they realise what I'm up to. It's a nice
counterpoint to the famous shot.
