   The medal, no padding, how strange a design, the writing seems to overflow the available space… no?

   First time I see Craig Venter with this kind of face expression, smile.
   My brain interpret it as happiness proud and "like on a cloud" feeling =)

   Congrats !!!!!

   2008 ? How come =)

    Great shot. As someone mentioned above already , it is good to know that Craig can smile occasionally. Most of the pictures which get released to the media don’t show this emotion.
