Now, could he have challenged himself far, far more in terms of how he shot these? Absolutely. He obviously set out to do this the kind, gentle, and easy way - and that's what he did. But as to the political take, well, Horsehooey! B.

Just join the crowd, click, and that's it. You wrote the ratio of demonstrants vs. policemen was 200 vs. 2000 - why did you not document this photographically interesting contrast? My impression was that you did not only want to show your pictures, but that you were looking for an opportunity to kick your personal concept of the enemy in the ass. The LUG's indeed the wrong place for that. That's why I agree with Mark, that your post was rather backhanded.
