Photo taken September, 2008 ... I think with a Fuji FinePix
I am sort of a "steemit dabbler" these days, I just can't go back to spending as much time as I did when I first started, especially not this time of year! However, I did just run across a contest that I could not resist. @worldcapture is hosting a photo contest of people, and I have a couple of pictures I think are pretty good portraits! Be sure to go here and get the details so you can enter, too!
My entry is from 2008, when @longsilver and I were Idaho "bound delegates" to the Republican National Convention for Ron Paul. While the warmongering branch of the GOP had a big rally for the annointed nominee, Ron Paul hosted a "Rally For The Republic" where I snapped this pic. I think that was with my Fuji FinePixcamera, but this was a while ago... It was an amazing event to attend, and I thought this photo was just iconic. While the other photographers in the photo could be seen as ruining the shot, I felt like it added some depth to the image. We were ALL snapping pics, but not all of us caught the confetti!!
Thanks to @worldcapture for hosting this, and good luck to all who enter!
I wonder whatever happened to that other dude who did photography post, his name started with a J, I haven't seen post by him in forever. Nice pic!
Yeah, Julian K. Ponsford - I am not sure what happened either. I used his tags a lot, then I kind of got off steemit for a while and when I came back he was gone. Maybe he will come back too! And thanks!
Oops, JuliaKPonsford is still on here and active, it was JulianK or something very similar.
Wow, what a great capture! Thanks for sharing it! :))
Thanks for giving me an excuse to share it!
