So why are there so few massive crowd shots? One reason may be that to really capture the scope of a demos this massive requires photogs to get well above the crowd - say by helicopter, which is what many of the corporate press outlets did on Saturday in DC. As for climbing up a local street light post or tree along the march route, the DC Metro police in DC made a point of discouraging that - although some photogs tried. Hopefully we'll see more crowd pan shots that will underscore just how large this action was.

Thanks to Chris for her first batch of pics - and hope to see more from other Chicagoans who marched on S24. The more the merrier.
