The CLOWN won't be living in the White House....the clown I'm speaking about is not OBAMA but the nominee so don't take it personal.

Nice photo but he needs to drop his Treasury Secretary nominee. If the clown can't pay his taxes he shouldn't have that important job.

A clown in the White House? Now, who really springs to mind?

Anyway, thanks OP for the link to the pic.

The challenge was: Take the first ever official presidential portrait with a digital camera.

Any dedicated DPC'er should see that this clearly is a DNMC and should not receive a vote over 3. The inauguration which offically makes Obama a prez doesn't take place until Jan 20th. Now, had it said "presidential elect" portrait I may have given it a 9...

Or... if the challenge had been B/W only the "DNMC nazi's" would've voted it low. He is after all wearing a white shirt :)

Sheesh... :P

Yeah they shoulda used a lensbaby and they should've gotten that woman photographer that makes kids cry - just to shake things up a little.

with a single ring-flash!

It really does seem pretty ordinary. I liked that photojournalist shot of him in the rain much better

Dammit, I can no longer say he's 100% MY president.

Reverse engineering time!

Softbox off camera left as key.

Softbox off camera right (strip?) as fill.

That was boring.

Canon-schmanon! Now, if they used a d90 with a LENSBABY, that would be coolness.

the favourite term used on DPC is, "the pin is distracting" roflmao...
