These are before and after photos of the Austrian Social Minister getting a haircut for charity. He agreed to be clipped in return for a hefty donation to a housing project, which is very nice.
Why do I care enough to use the photos here? Because our caption (see below) was very careful to tell readers which was the before and which was the after shot. That’s for all you news consumers who might have thought that his hair actually got longer in the process of being cut. 
Austrian social minister Erwin Buchinger is pictured before (L) and after a haircut in Vienna February 8, 2007. Buchinger agreed recently to get his hair cut if a donation of at least 5,000 euros was given to the ‘neunerHAUS’ social housing project in Vienna. REUTERS/Heinz-Peter Bader

Thanks, blog guy. You should know that the reference was omitted in the braille version of the caption, for some reason.
