      Ho-Bo-bama, "So, Ted, tell me how you were able to murder that woman when you were a young man and get away with it?" Ted, "Well, Ho-bo, all I had to do was pay the right people and it just went away...besides, she was a nobody."

      Pete uses the Canon 5D, 5DII, and will be using a Leica M8.2, according to his site.

      This absolutely beautiful photo reminds us all just how fragile Ted Kennedy has become since his diagnosis. Sometimes even the strongest of men need a little extra help getting around. Pete did a great job capturing a new version of such a legendary photo.

      This one is a sad photo in a way. I feel badly for Sen. Kennedy although I am diametrically opposed to him politically. No one should have to go through what he and his family are having to. After such a long career in a position of power; and to be stricken down.
      The end of one era, ushering in a new one.
      A powerful image.

      The pictures have so much clarity and contrast. What kinda camera were they taken with?
