Somewhat buried in the back of today’s New York Times was this terrific photograph by Chris Carlson of the Associated Press. It’s of Barack Obama at Sunday’s rally in Portland, Oregon where an estimated crowd of 75,000 came out to hear him speak. I think it has to be the best photograph of the campaign so far and I’m surprised it didn’t make the front page.
Because of the Times’ production, however, it appeared in black and white in the paper while online the original color version appeared. So it was not an aesthetic or design choice, but I think it may be just a hair better as a color, largely because of the red, white, and blue bunting. Again – your thoughts ….?
