still the best country in the world, if we don't like this country or it's politics...we are free to leave it behind. It's been that way before George Washington and it will never change because it is human beings who are politicians and they are always confronted with cleaning someone else's mess up if not created my themselves.
We are fools to think that a country is only run by one person, it is run by a team for the people and by the people.
Every country has it's leaders trying to play God and the taking of life of human beings by human beings. We lost control when man created the first war on earth and those followed after words. Bombs and Bullets solves nothing, show me where it has made peace?
Every country wears their own flag on their own suit, empty suit that is:o).
It is all in the HOPE and Effort given forth. Our U.S. President Obama and his team has one hell of a mess to clean up and they will in no doubt create some of their own. When Christ comes, it will all be gone.
Once again I would like to thank everyone for their comments, it's been quite an interesting week, hopefully next week's assignment takes us all in a happier direction.
Yakim,
Yes, the vignetting was done in PP mainly for two reasons: First, I personally like images with vignetting especially when they are displayed on a computer screen without a frame, so it was a matter of personal taste. The second reason is that I found the open spaces on the top right and bottom left rather distracting so I used the vignetting to draw the the eye from them to the suit and in particular the tie and lapel pin. As for the lighting; I used three off camera strobes fired by poverty wizards, the image below shows the setup diagram for this image. The concept for this image was a politician (empty suit) on stage at a rally of some sort. I felt the poster was appropriate since it has become an icon in its own right last several months and has been seen at political events everywhere and not just at Presidential rallies.
Thanks,
Scott

Your statement actually is a spot on statement when it comes to politicians, and in this case it fits some much more than others. EXACTLY THE REACTION I WANTED!
