This photo is hot! Share it!
I wanted to attend the Obama rally here in Portland but I opted to go out for lunch with my family instead. Even though I was happy to spend some much needed quality time with my kids, I was also sort of kicking myself for missing out on the rally. On our way home from lunch, we noticed quite the crowd at Lew's Drive-In which is about three blocks away from my house. Wouldn't you know it? There he was, Barack Obama with his wife, Michelle, plus a sizable entourage, having a little lunch while a crowd of onlookers and reporters gathered in the parking lot outside. I only saw him for a couple of minutes and he didn't say much at all. Still, lucky me.

Much better view then what we had. We stood in line for an hour and we where about 150 yards away and completely packed in. This is a wonderful picture Maria : )

Nice shot Maria. I was also lucky enuff to get a shot of him when he was in Florida the only thing is I didnt have my zoom lens so I couldnt get as close as I wanted to and I'm only 5'6 and the crowd on average was much taller than I was LOL. Once again very nice capture--that picture is history in the making.
