I pass these remnants of the presidential campaign everyday on my way to work. Today ... the work begins.

it does indeed! Wonderfully clear image Ron, and hopefully this is a day on which we can all come together to begin the work so desperately needed :)

wow great shot! and it is interesting to see that these fantastic posters are still up and not covered over already - i guess that says something about the effect he has on everybody. i wonder how long they will stay up....

Interesting influence of pop art; usually campaign posters are much more traditional.
