Has anyone seen any good wide-angle photos of the protests?
I'm looking for any photos that give an idea of the scale of the protest. So far the ones I've found have been close-ups, which don't indicate just how many people were there.

It's for tomorrow's Top 10. Thanks in advance!

By the way, I grabbed a couple shots of the Freepers' rally. Not so great...

4. I have pictures I took
I took pictures of the crowd from up in front of the Washington Monument. It's a series of left to right - and I have some looking up 15th street, too. I can't figure out how to post them. If you can help me get them to you, their yours for the posting.

10. I had my camcorder and got plenty of photos of the parade
It took 4/5 hours while slowly moving thru the streets. We were smashed together like sardines. It was wonderful to see so many of us taking over the DC streets.

:kick:

I do not sure how to transfer the disk to the form of media required to be used on the internet. Any ideals ??

14. Ya know.. I was wondering if you were going to put up some
comparison pics tomorrow. haha.

Hey make sure you quote all the speakers on Freepfest talking about how popular this war is with the American citizens. I've heard that from at least 3 or 4 today.

17. There was a thread here this morning
That had some great photos, they were aerials that showed a huge crowd in front of the stage and the street full of people as far as one could see. I don't remember the name, I may have it bookmarked though i'll check.

22. Earl, I was going to ask someone with the authority to post side by side
pics of the two events...since I was not there and did not take photos...I wanted someone who did to post a side by side....I see you have the same idea! Your pic could go up against 'their pic' any day!

26. Are fweepies required to wear red, white and blue at their rallies?
As if wearing the colors of the flag makes them more patriotic.

Okay...

Does this mean even THEY'RE not buying what was being said anymore?

Or they're just retentive fu-ks as a general rule?
