Once in a Lifetime (69 Days)

I'm over here! *waving*

What section were you in?!?

BIGGER!

A completely unforgettable day...this was our view.

84,000 people waving American flags. 84,000 people filled with hope -- believing that things can change. 84,000 people ready to take back America.

(also for the CWD Unity assignment)

Made interestingness #40.

Okay besides the fact that being there was AWESOME, this photo is awesome. Reminds me of a photo from Life magazine (is that still around?).

Actually, I was sitting there (late) trying to think up an assignment and I told Tara I was thinking of Unity, but had no idea what to shoot for it. She kinda gave me a little crap, so I went ahead and used it. :)

Already commented, but I going through them all again, and it struck me--- why did you go BW on this, out of curiousity? I would think the R/W/B would have been amazing to see...

d.rex says:

I really like the old-time feeling of the b/w version here. But I just went back to the original based on your comment...the problem is that despite all the flags, there's not really that much red/white/blue in the photo (you see a lot more random shirt colors, etc.) and the colors aren't as exciting as you'd think.
