Opening day of Florida's legislative session

[Michael]

I shot opening day of session to get some new portfolio images. I used a 7D with an 17-40 f/L on the panorama and with flash for the gov leaving, a 70-200 f/2.8L for the speech, and a 300 f/2.8L IS during the speech to get head shots. I like to use BW for informal shots of public figures, hence the third shot being BW.

I did not have a press pass for this, I just acted the part and carried lots of gear.

Feedback and criticism are appreciated!

Wow - you got pretty close access considering you had no press credentials. Wonderful set of images!

Great work! I really like the first image. You did a great job capturing the room. The ring of portraits around the balcony is quite neat.
