Persons of the Year 2005
TIME Magazine has announced their Persons of the Year 2005 and they are Bono, Melinda & Bill Gates. three people on a global mission to end poverty, disease—and indifference. Bono is the lead singer of U2 & is an activist. As quoted from Oprah.com: He “transforms passionate intensity into action that just might change the world”. Melinda & Bill Gates is the dynamic duo whose charitable foundation rocks the world. As quoted in their organisation’s website: They are Working for a More Equitable World. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is committed to promoting greater equity in global health, education, public libraries, and support for at-risk families in Washington state and Oregon. Well these 3 people are quite a good choice, but if you want to know why: Bono - who spends several thousand dollars at a restaurant for a nice Pinot Noir, and Bill Gates - the great predator of the Internet age, has a trampoline room in his $100 million house are TIME’s Persons of the Year 2005 then you would have to buy the current issue of TIME Magazine.

Yeah, just a coincidence that it has those words displayed when the shot was taken. It’s displayed in the afternoon so it’s pretty bright
I saw your POY picture in your blog, pretty cool too.
