<p>Which of the three photos in this series of the same man taken at different times in his life strikes you as the face of a hard alpha? A soft beta? A man who has checked out?</p>
<a href="/files/1x7aMSGl.jpeg" target="_blank"><img class="center" src="/files/1x7aMSGl.jpeg"></a>
<p>How about the man in this series?</p>
<a href="/files/7E0j9rdS.jpeg" target="_blank"><img class="center" src="/files/7E0j9rdS.jpeg"></a>
<p>And, finally, what about this man?</p>
<a href="/files/Pr5noahr.jpeg" target="_blank"><img class="center" src="/files/Pr5noahr.jpeg"></a>
<p>Make your guesses, then go to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130601060926/http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2013/05/mesmerizing-photographs-of-soldiers-faces-before-during-and-after-a-war-2652322.html" target="_blank">the original link</a> to read the details. Are you being duped by manipulative lighting? Or does a man’s face really change to reflect the burdens and the expectations of his life?</p>
<p>If the latter, what you are seeing here is evidence that a man can become more alpha or less alpha, in disposition and even in expression, when circumstances intrude and decisions, sometimes life or death, have to be made. Maybe a man can’t go from 100% beta to 100% alpha on a dime, but he can increase his alpha at the margins. And the margin is all the edge you need, whether the situation you are in is firing at a nest of insurgents or walking up to a girl and capturing her imagination for a night.</p>
