some are nice. the night shot is good. the others...a lot look like
they were shot with a limited DR phone camera with the HDR filter
cranked. it kind of makes me sad that they just crowdsourced the
pictures only gave attribution in the form of their username in the
corner. Newspapers used to pay actual money for good pictures. I guess
the new model is to run a story and find pictures on the internet they
can just post. Photojournalism is dying. I think that's sad.
I got the idea that the photographers were participants in the event.
The text reads like a press release the arts group might have issued to AP.
They run a lot of Associated Press stuff since they were sold to AOL.
And to the best of my knowledge, you're the first person I've ever heard
accuse Huffington Post of committing journalism, photo or otherwise.
Detail shot of the yarn:

And this picture I took without realizing who the subject was until I
posted to facebook. 20 minutes later at 1:00AM, someone who I didn't
know at all commented that it was her friends in the picture and
tagged them. I looked at their profiles and low and behold it was the
assistant director for the bridge and her husband who also helped.
They loved the picture.

Thanks everyone. I plan on going back and getting some daylight shots.

this morning.
