I wish someone would do a book of photography from Obama's campaign
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 05:02 PM by Mike 03
Some of the most beautiful photographic images I have ever seen have been produced during the course of this campaign.

Maybe there are some book editors here who might see this. I recall a book of photographs from the Clinton/Gore campaign in 1992, many of which were taken by Tipper Gore if memory serves.

This is something I will want to remember forever.

1. I've seen one advertised in the Denver papers..... specifically about the convention, I think
Is that of any interest?

4. Whoa, that would be great.
Obama's acceptance speech is exactly one of the events I had in mind.

Thank you for the heads up; I will definitely check that out.

9. Here's the info on it.... I think it would be better to order it directly from The Denver Post
rather than Amazon, however.. gives the Post the props for doing it!

http://www.amazon.com/Democratic-National-Convention-2008-Obamas/dp/1555917208

Hope this helps..... :hi:

8. "Then order bunchs of it and sell em "
One minor problem with that scenario.

MOST, if not ALL of those photos are copyrighted.

Getting permission to use them would be..... well, if not impossible, close to it.

7. Reading my mind.
I thought about a wide coffee table book with just pics and limited captions. It would sell in the millions whatever you had to charge for it.

Call it 735 Days -- the length of the campaign.

10. I'm going to make a scrapbook of pictures and articles that chronicle
the Obamas' journey to the White House. The pictures many people posted here will help me with that!
