Default Soyuz/Progress spotting features

I'm looking at
http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/station/crew-27/html/iss027e036801.html

and wondering what easy spotting features let me know which is Soyuz
and which is Progress?

(There should be one of each in frame, right, since the other Soyuz is
the camera platform?)

I found one! The upper craft has the green periscope.
