I have always (well okay, since I saw it) loved this photograph. Especially the look on his face.

Shit i gotta go get some rice.

If I understand correctly, and there's a pretty good chance I don't, this was the first photograph that didn't have the subject standing solemnly.

edit: whoopsie

A Chinese man sits at a small table and smiles a huge smile while holding a bowl of rice, about to dig in.
