thanks anyone else got any commets

None, other than on #1 your focus was on his right hand. Otherwise good shots. I'm jealous of the opportunity you were given. Let's just hope he wins!

yea my girlfriends mom got us in as local press. the first one i knew was focused wrong i thought it was to cool. And i think i can see the purple hue but i think thats just the lighting they had

Oh....in #4 thats just a question of luck and timing, theres nothing technically wrong with it.

Great shots! I agree with the purple tinge though. And Obama is winning in early exit polls.

i think between my cheap lens and the way that the rally was lighted with construction lights kinda caused that purple hue to the pictures.

To my knowledge, Obama's been using HMI lighting, about 5500ºK, these are very expensive and high quality lights used for film and video as well. If you shot raw you can tweak tor white balance easily, but it looks about right to me, If anything its just a bit of purple fringing.

Actually the light they use are pretty sweet, they run off of 480v or 208 three phase and the big ones are 18,000 watts each!

i am using the canon photo studio and i cant figure out how to adjust the white balance anyone know.

Yes, you took pictures of the next president of the United States of America. :thumbup::thumbup:

The white balance looks good on my monitor. His forehead has a pretty good glare in all of them, but other than that I think they look good. Nice work.

I think the "purple hue" you're seeing is CA. Notice that it's only on the edges of high contrast areas.

i feel kinda cool that i took pictures of a president or atleast soon to be
