Nice one, Jetee! :wave:

I like the ones that humanize, somehow. My SO thinks he looks hot
getting out of SUV. :orly:

Traveling!

Those are some great pictures! The link has even more.

Is he ordering a whooper in that first picture?

He's at Manny's Deli in the south of downtown Chicago, just north of Roosevelt Rd. on Jefferson St. An absolute must go and eat there kind of place if you're ever in Chicago. He had corned beef. My favorite is their roast beef on an onion roll with a latke (potato pancake). Their pastrami is also good.

First off: Mac user. Second: Pac Man!

Meh. Just another dude. In 4 or 8 years he will be no different than G.W.B., Bill Clinton, etc.

So I see this pic, and the only thing that comes to mind is, "I'm a man, I'm 40!!!"

I like this picture.

I have to say the MacBama pic is my fav. A tech savy pres.. imagine that

I like that picture too, and like Charlatan, I had a good giggle at the Pac-Man sticker!

There is some really great work here. I like that RollingStone cover. Thanks for posting that, Esoteric.

did anyone else notice the half black/half white look in the last photo that Jetée posted?

on purpose or just how the lighting occurred during the shot? :hmm:

Hah, interesting find guccilvr. I think it just has to do with the way the lighting occurred during the shot. Looks like maybe a door window or something, but that's pretty neat.

Well, of course I noticed it, that's why I posted it, but it did take a good 2-3 seconds to detect it upon first glance; very subtle the way the artist rendered it, quite beautifully it resulted in the above portrayal.

Waiting: Obama listens from a back stairwell as he is introduced in Muscatine, Iowa. It was his second or third speech of the day. Unlike many of the politicians I have
photographed in the past, I find it is easy to get a photograph of Obama alone. He lets his staff do their jobs and not fuss over him. Nov. 7, 2007.

I loved that he cleaned up after himself before leaving an ice cream shop in Wapello, Iowa. He didn't have to. The event was over and the press had left. He is used to
taking care of things himself and I think this is one of the qualities that makes Obama different from so many other political candidates I've encountered. Nov. 7, 2007.

Two staffers had just passed this site and done two pull-ups. Not to be outdone, Obama did three with ease, dropped and walked out to make a speech. Missoula, Mont.,
Apr. 5, 2008.

in the height of the cold and flu season, I thought this pic would seem like an appropriate little sign of the times.
