This was a shot from the Orange County Street Fair on a Saturday Night. The crowd was ridiculous: easily the most dense concentration of human beings I've ever been a part of. None of the photos I took effectively communicate just how ridiculously crowded this thing was.
I still had fun and everything, but it was truly ridiculous. More thoughts here.

I never would have thought it to be used as a pedestrian walkway to support the almost two million people who came to see the inauguration of Barrack Obama as the 44th President of the United States.
