Everybody told me I was nuts for going to it and that there was nothing going on. Well knowing protestors I knew they would still be there. I actually had a great time dodging the rain and running after anarchists.

Here are a few of my favorites... so far, I'm still going through and processing some.

C&C is always appreciated and welcome.

    Like the expression on the policeman's face; also like the bikes, too. Looking forward to seeing more.

    Excellent job. I think you've captured things well by going for the
    specific instead of the general. A tight shot on the hooded group
    is more interesting than a wide shot of a large crowd.

    Thanks Tony. I'm going back tomorrow since it's the last day of the convention. though I doubt there will be much going on, so I may bail early. The turnout of protestors was really weak to say the least.

    Really digging the perspective of the bicycles all lined up. And the expression of the officers face is a good catch/frame with the protester in front of him. (...who's going to blink first)

    Good luck out there, Phil. After three 14 hour days, I think I'm going to spend my valuable time at home with my family. I think another march with 25 people in it will have to wait until another day. The RNC protests were a joke, honestly.

    The joke to me was Ann Romney saying that as a wife and mother she is
    concerned about the prices as the gas pump.

    Yeah, she's concerned that it takes $90 instead of $80 to fill up the tank
    of the horse van to take her show horse to the airport to send to London.

    Also black humor of the highest degree.
