Please note: this is not a political statement. I don't agree with these views at all, but if you do, then good for you! Feel free to message me about it--heck, IM me (MyLaundryStinks)--but please don't turn my photo into a forum for the good or bad political moves of George W. Bush's years in office. Thank you.

The whole reason why I took this photo is because of what it means to me. It's the first photojournalistic photo I ever took, and I took it on a very basic 35mm camera that barely even had a zoom lens.

Somewhere around here are the negatives. I need to get them scanned to a cd so I can put up a decent version of this. It's super grainy and not the greatest version. I'm surprised it's gotten as much traffic as it has.

What's the backstory to where you were at? I liked your disclaimer btw ;p

True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice.

Haha, thanks. I do what I can.

I was walking to class, I think, across Sanford Mall at Appalachian, and there was some anti-war/Bush protest/demonstration going on at the other end of the field. All I had was my happy snaps 35mm camera, but where I stopped to watch the action, I just happened to be in line with the protest signs. So I took a picture, and then kept walking.
I didn't realize it was going to look as cool as it did, though. I really need to find the negatives and get it scanned to a disc so i can get a better image. I think this is a scan of a scan.
