The Burden of Being A Mayor

Being the mayor of Ljubljana can really take it out on you…(photos by Pengovsky)


Although it may seem that I’m making fun of the man, I actually feel slightly sorry for mayor Zoran Janković. I mean, I know he brought it upon himself by running for office, but here you can see what four months of public service can do to a man. The pictures may not be of the highest quality and I’ll admit that his poses are different in every one of them, but I think that the burden of the office is apparent.

BTW: according to Manager magazine, Zoran Janković takes “only” 47th place among the 100 richest Slovenians.


A note on the photos: The first photo was taken a day after he anounced his candidacy, all the others were taken while je was already in office. The bottom ones were taken with a Nokia 6680 phone (2.0 megapixel), the top two were taken were taken with a Sony Cybershot (also 2.0 megapixel). All four pictures were taken under artificial light, with all but the first one taken in the same room during various press conferences.


Oh, and my ladies… Happy Women’s Day! 😀
