I don't generally talk about camera equipments. I feel like I have to
apologize for talking about cameras rather than photography. Well, here's
the apology: sorry, gear talk ahead...
Michael Johnston's excellent blog references President Elect Obama's official
portrait
<http://theonlinephotographer.typepad.com/the_online_photographer/2009/01/the-new-official-portrait-of-the-president.html>and
a discussion ensues on the difficulty of capturing Mr. Obama's skin color.
During the campaign, I was often aghast at how bad some of the online news
photographs were with his skin being frequently more yellow than not. So I
have to agree that this official portrait seems to capture the skin color
quite a bit better...
