I took some photos at yesterday's rally here for Beto O'Rourke, candidate for US Senate. I used three rolls of film in a medium format camera, so about thirty-six frames. There has only been time to develop one roll, but this, I think, is the best frame off that roll. For photographer friends, this was tricky. There was probably three f-stops difference in the light across the image, and I was not able to use a high-speed capture. I waited for clouds to roll through and then tried to quickly check my focus. But I think the medium format suits Beto, kind of a throwback candidate. The message? Carefully spoken, not dwelling much on negatives but, for the most part, emphasizing the positives of what unites people, reaching across the aisles as much as possible while keeping his central base. And look at the young girl on the lower left, who kept by the stage, sometimes leaning on the edge, soaking in the speech and the crowd.
