Philippe - All the PA stuff was immediately to my right. I have one
other frame of the 3 young women and their expressions, and the
expressions of those behind them, just don't make it. As I walked toward
the area where they were, things were winding down and they got up to
leave a moment after the two frames were exposed.

GeeBee - Thank you. This comment means a great deal to me.

Philippe - Your picks are also among my favorites - I'd add 1160 and
1127. Interesting re: shooting rolls and rolls - I exposed around 70
frames with the 20D, 80 Summilux, 50 Summicron, and the 10-22mm. And
didn't feel like I was getting anything worth a damn. The lack of action
really threw me off. Folks just standing about in a somber mood and
spread out for two blocks - I just kept walking up and down the line
searching for the mood of both respect and protest which I felt.
