A friend of mine, Dylan Hollingworth, took that picture at the Dallas County Democratic Party Election Night watching party. Dylan is a true blue Obama supporter and without question one of the most naturally gifted photographers I've ever come across. Just a natural born storyteller with an artist eye and a heart for every living thing.
Unfortunately, about 20 minutes before the election was called for Obama, Dylan came up to me and said "hey, keep an eye out for anyone with a blue camera bag, mine's been lifted". He lost thousands of dollars worth of gear that night, but he kept on shooting.
He has set up a Zenfolio album to sell prints as a way to get the money to repurchase equipment. I hope you'll check out more of his work at the link, fellow photography aficionados - you won't be disappointed.

riveted.
Your description of his abilities is exactly how I feel seeing these images he captured.
Then I closed the mouth, it had been hanging open, and saw them again.
Now I think I'll find a hammer and smash my camera.
Thank you Schema Thing for showing up and bringing us such treasure.

Wow, if I could come up with only one that was comparable to his work, I'd be happy.
