I had the best fortune to get a press ticket to the inauguration today! I had such a blast but boy was it freeezing. I got to see many dignitaries and many famous folk as well. The best part was I was there to see Obama take the Oath of office and from a pretty good seat!
I originally was on the front row, literally 25 feet from Obama would be, but due to the angle, it wasn't a prime spot for photos. So I snuck around to another spot further back but that gave me a much better view.
Well, enjoy the photos, and let's hope for a great 4 years.
