Twitter update
I just told my wife that I did localized edits to the kitchen floor last week. Maybe I need a break from Photoshop.
last day of early voting
This morning my wife dropped me off at one of only a few early voting locations in Hillsborough County. Although my vote had been cast already, I wanted to document this historic election in some way. Because my 16-85mm hasn’t arrived yet, all I had with me was a 50mm f/1.8 and a 70-300mm f/4. Despite the missing range, I am pretty happy with these.
These lenses were not nearly wide enough to capture the length of the line of voters. It stretched from the library all the way to a high school parking lot next door. It was quite a powerful statement to see people so willing to wait to make their voices heard. Based on what I saw today, I predict Tuesday is going to be an absolute nightmare nationwide.
If you have not read my earlier post about voter fraud, I recommend following the links in it, especially to the Bill Moyers piece, so that you are not surprised by the obstacles voters will face on the 4th.
