If this was my own website, I'd probably keep it (although there are topics that matter to me more than that one). But I don't want the WP guys to get into trouble - TIME Inc. turned to them, and they to me. Yep, red fonts, uniforms, that all works pretty well.

(oops, parapraxis, I'll leave it.) You might be able to fight to keep the picture. The DMCA process seems to simply say that someone "believes" their copyright has been infringed and that the parties will be notified. Don't know if you want to be bothered, though. It's not like you're selling the picture !? As you note, not very Web 2.0. If Pham is now a celebrity, then he loses (which seems unfair somehow) the right to his picture, but so too does Time Inc. With the DMCA process we don't seem to see what Time's copyright argument consists of. Note, too, the red font scare tactics. Grrr.... Time Inc dies suck. (oops, parapraxis, I’ll leave it.)
