- nice series, good capture of expressions. I think I would look at the WB on some of these though - just to improve them that little bit more.

There was three different types of lights on the stage. One for the podium, one for the seat behind the podium and one for the crowd behind them. It was enough to give a guy fits and throw off the WB.

It'd be enough to make me pull my hair out if I had any.

Excellent work.

Wow - didn't realize the problems you were facing - you done good handling the light!

One might thing (as I did) that the lighting engineer would have been told to consider that people would be taking picture and to do the best they could to get the light temperature somewhat the same from place to place. But, I don't work in the political arena so what do I know?

Nicely captured portraits of an attractive group of people.

The WB seems to vary a bit from frame to frame also. Short shutter speeds with cyclic tungsten lighting, perhaps?
