The finest General general of our time. Without him Saddam would have won, Bin Laden would still be taunting us and the Falkland islanders would be speaking Spanish.

It looks like a snap taken by a child using a smart phone.

I think the look on his face says "against my better judgement"
This has been decided by the people in grey suits. Personally I think they got it wrong.

It reminded me of one of those chavved up (usually) Fords covered in stickers etc that used to be commonly seen

It looks like they stopped him for a selfie while he was walking down a corridor on the way to something more important.

If a car had that many decals we'd all be laughing at it.

Background still too prominent/distracting.
He looks like he should stand more erect.

Looks royally royal to me. Isn't that the idea?

I met him when he was a Prince, and to say that he was the sharpest dressed person I've ever met would be an understatement.

He looked like he wore his suits once and threw them in the bin. Come to think of it, I guess he could afford to.

If only his sharpness extended to his intellect. A deeply medicore person with an absolute sense of entitlement and innate superiority over the rest of us.

Only Monarchy can do this. Well, maybe that's not fair, democracy did give us Boris Johnson, but once he was rumbled he was ejected. Can't do that to a Monarch.
