Description
Edit 1/20/09 --And today he is now our president :3
Obama came to town, so I went to see.
At the end of his speech, he walked down where a few people were standing around his stage (where I was near). I got so close, I snapped this picture.
I could've reached out and shook his hand, but I opted to photograph him instead.
I'm really proud of this one. I was amazed that I could get so close.

Help me to find Mr. Jasper Schuringa and send him this message that I am intended to buy one of his used underpants at the price of 1000$ and complete my installation art.

America disagrees. Of course, considering you have the nazi sign as ur profile picture, you might be a bit behind times.

I mean don't get me wrong, I don't give a flying shit about politics. I just wanted to take some pictures, but what's the point in trolling some random deviant's political picture?

With a focal length of 150mm you must have been zoomed in a fair bit though
Very nice photo, love the depth of field and sharpness of Obama

Yeah I had to zoom a lot to get just his face in that much of the picture. x]
&& thank you very much.

It must've been really great being there and getting that close to him. You didn't even have to zoom in to get that picture either? I would've opted for the photo, too...

I had to zoom to get just his face, but I was very close to him all the same :3

Lovely shot, hope he's better than bush, that is to say, hope he doesn't blow up the universe.

Obama was at my college few years ago before I even knew he was running for president. I wish I would've went to the seminar he was doing. Oh well. I'll be in DC on the 20th with all the craziness.
