Election Night

To get my mind off the anxiety of the electoral college, Joe the Plumber and dangling chad flashbacks, I decided to get outside for a photo on election night. I had an idea. I envisioned my loft building filled with people in their living rooms watching the election results on TV, as seen from the rooftop across the street. So I lugged my gear up seven floors and set up shortly before sunset.

At the tail end of the magic hour, I clicked away. And wouldn't you know it, I seemed to be the only loser in town not at an election night party because, as you can see, hardly anyone was home. Shit.

Oh well, I got a great new photo of my loft building and a new President to boot. Win/win.
