Can't say this is a great picture, but it makes for a witty  album cover:

Saw this picture on the news a few minutes ago, in a BBC report of the passing of actress Glenda Jackson, A short while after filming her last feature with Michael Caine. I found this picture of them together absolutely heart-warming and adorable.
