Hillary in Hartford

I did not go. But if you want a feel for the event, I highly recommend Chion Wolf's flicker page. Ms. Wolf works at WNPR; you can catch her online now and then (she had the mic on Sunday night, I'm always happy to hear her voice as one might a beloved cousin or kid sister) - but I love her photos as well. A multi-talented (she also plays music) and hard-working young woman.

I stumbled upon her Flickr page searching for photos of the Plainville hot air balloon fest, and I keep going back - it's kind of like reading a favorite blog, but with photos. I was even surprised to see an old friend there a few days back, shooting pool and enjoying a night out at a pub. Beautiful pictures.

Back to the Hillary in Hartford event. I've seen video. I've read news articles and blogs. But Chion's photos seem to capture the event - close-up's of the candidate and the audience, wide shots to give you a sense of perspective. Even some shots of the left wing Hillary protesters outside the venue, and the wall of media cameras in the back.

I tried but couldn't get into the event--too crowded.

You're right...Chion's work is fabulous. Thx for the link.
