Pictured: Obama's First 100 Days

Such is his star quality that, 100 days into his Presidency, most of the world is still in thrall to Barack Obama.

In this extraordinary series of photographs taken during his first weeks in the White House, the full power of Obama's charm and charisma is on display.

From walking the pet dog he had promised his daughters he'd get them when he was elected, to playing with a football in the Oval Office or using 3D glasses to watch the Super Bowl on TV with his family, this is a President who plays to the cameras for all it's worth.
