Sorry if this is getting off topic, but I just wanted to comment on 
this.  It seems like a very sound theory.  After all, a lot of 
subjects in newspaper photos are probably not all that thrilled to be 
there.  For example, I'm sure the photographed Sirius would have 
retreated to the margins to protect his original self from 
identification if he could have done so.
