I don’t think that it was a photo contest entry, but I vote for the shot of Shakira in leather pants at the “We Are One” concert.

jehylton’s gets my vote. I like the morning sky, the jumbotron, and people already filling up the mall.

Tim, I’m w/you thinking it is disrespectful to clamber on memorials and monuments. But I’m sure the Park Police, etc were busy helping the crowds get through the security gates… er never mind.

I vote for the one that was of the girl in the white hat standing in the blurred out crowd…I think it was the second entry.

Second I like the ones of the people’s asses – not for the asses! haha But it was diff view point than the tops of heads and for that I thought it deserves a vote.

Third the Barbara Bush one made me giggle.

I don’t know about you PoP, or anyone else … but I was really bothered to see people climbing all over memorials and monuments on Inauguration Day. I understand that they wanted a better view, but seriously … these aren’t jungle-gyms or play-toys, they are monuments and memorials to some of our greatest leaders.

I was personally bothered by it – but it just goes to show that most people weren’t here for the Inauguration per say — they were here to see Barack Obama get Inauguration, which also bothered me. But I sense I am an outlyer on this issue.

“Sadly, I can’t take anymore entries.”

You’re the purple ticket gate of photo contests!!!
