Lincoln Group of the District of Columbia -- Bicentennial dinner -- Except for podium presentation -- Notes:

• Photo Library Home Page: [Click here] to go to Bruce Guthrie's Photo Library home page.
• Description of Pictures: The Lincoln Group of the District of Columbia held its Bicentennial Birthday Celebration for President Abraham Lincoln at the Willard Hotel. Invited speakers were The Honorable George S. McGovern (Senator, Author, Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient.) and Dr. Craig L. Symonds (Historian, Author, Professor Emeritus, U.S. Naval Academy).
  Because I took so many, pictures from this event are divided onto two pages:
  Pictures of the dinner (excluding the presentation on the podium)
  Pictures of the presentation on the podium
• Slide Show: Want to see the pictures as a slide show? [Slideshow]
• Copyrights: Standard stuff. All pictures were taken by Bruce Guthrie who retains copyright on them. Free for non-commercial use. If used in a publication or web site, please give appropriate attribution (such as "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie"). If they're used in a publication, I'd love to receive a free copy of the publication.

Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from official signs on location; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.
• Help? The 0640x0480 links are for screen viewing and emailing. The 2048x1536 (older ones may be different sizes than this) links are mostly for downloading and printing (they can be used to do reasonable-quality prints up to about 8x10). [Click here for additional help]

• 2009 photos: Equipment this year: I was using mostly the Fuji S100fs. I've also got a Nikon D90 and a newer Fuji -- the S200EHX -- both of which are nice but I still prefer the flexibility of the Fuji. Trips this year: (1) quick jaunt to Niagara Falls, (2) quick jaunt to New York City, (3) the Civil War Preservation Trust annual conference in Gettysburg, (4) out west for the San Diego Comic-Con and various places, and (5) the Civil War Preservation Trust Grand Review in Springfield IL . Ego strokes: I had a picture of a Lincoln-Obama cupcake sculpture published in Civil War Times and WUSA-9, the local CBS affiliate, ran a quick piece on me. A picture that I took at the annual Abraham Lincoln Symposium appeared in the National Archives' "Prologue" magazine. Photos taken this year: 417,000 (over 1.5 million since I went digital back in 2002). User page views this year: 22,700 (almost identical to last year).
