Stars and Stripes

The DNC. It's such a huge, historic event that I didn't want to miss. I've been really excited by the politics of this year and couldn't see myself not covering the DNC -- the culmination of everything else politically that I've shot this year. I took some vacation time to come out here to Denver. I was told by several to make the best of it. To look for that silver lining. It's really nice not to have to cover the news of the day. Not to be responsible for photographing all the speakers. Not to have any parameters. Not to have any orders. So, I decided to keep with the American flag theme today. It keeps me amused while I'm wandering, looking for moments, searching for photographs, trying to find that glimmer of a silver lining. Really excited by working for noone but myself.
