obama in the upstate

by JL on June 17, 2007

My Friday assignment was to photograph all the political action as Barack Obama talked before a reported crowd of 3500 (they expected 1500). The event went rather smoothly, despite the really late start. [video]

But the actual reason I was posting this was to point out all the non-traditional media on the platform.

And at one point, I was outnumbered by people shooting for websites.

Also, I was hoping (at some point in the next year) to get a shot of me and Obama (or any candidate, really) - which is kinda hard to do when I’m always behind a camera. But after surfing the newspaper’s photo gallery I came across this…

That’s my arm! Not quite the shot I was hoping for, but it’s a good start.
