John Lennon and Yoko Ono, photographed by Annie Leibovitz, has an interesting approach to capturing the subject. For starters, John Lennon is coddled. Kissing and caressing, on his wife, something that is not normally portrayed in a photograph of a couple that includes a man and a woman. Normally, women are appeared to be softer and the men are harder and more portrayed as the protector, but in this photograph, it appears as though Yoko Ono is the protector, different from the norm.
