Scarlet Ibis
The Chicken of D.C.
i'm just playing devil's advocate here, because i don't know if the guy in the new picture is jake or not; it's probably not... BUT... none of the points you raise seem to be very valid arguments against.
1) The guy in the new pic DOES look older than jake in the old pic. maybe he's aged well or it's a great angle.
2) "jake's face isn't that long"? The faces look very similar to me.
3) why would he be walking away from him?!?!?! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!! i mean this in the nicest way, but are you really that naive? There are photographers around!!! THAT'S why someone would be walking away from someone they're with. For whatever reason, people DO walk away from people the don't want to be photographed with, even if they're with him/her. It happens with industry types all the time, just to use one example. Moz's image is very important to him. If he doesn't want to be photographed with someone, I'm sure he'd walk away from him or her.
Exactly.
