Photos présidentielles. Décryptage. Photographer Tom Craig's best shot | Art and design. I've been to 90 countries and the days when I can just enjoy a place on its own merits are long gone. I am constantly trying to join the dots, to figure out why we're eating croissant in the Congo, why that Inuit is so drunk, whether that marsupial can really be carnivorous. Every detail says something telling about the there and then. I first worked with the journalist AA Gill on a trip to Chad for a Médecins Sans Frontières book. I heard he had a reputation for not getting along with photographers, but we did, famously, and have been working together ever since.

People are always quite surprised that neither of us know much about the places we visit. I don't do any in-depth research as I want to be taken by observations, not preconceptions. In this case we were in Albania for six days in 2006. I don't know whether these men were unemployed, had been thrown out of their houses by their wives or were just hanging out.
