Just my 2 cents. but pulled the picture out did some conditioning to it, then compared to the hybrid image of DC off of Google maps. There are only three items in the area that have anything beginning to look like a spire as that seen in the picture. And positioning them in the photo would have resulted in additional clutter not present. at the closest magnification I could get, am having a hard time picking out anything that looked like the lamp posts in the region they were supposed to be. Never having been to DC, I have to rely on the sources available, and after having looked the area over on the satellite photos, can't say I am convinced of the authenticity.
I would say definately a telephoto shot, which will compress distances between objects. Does seem to be a sharp drop-off in color, though I have seen a few incidences of this occuring, especially with the use of a telephoto and if there is a dip in between say the last of the protestors and the treeline behind

Well .. I believe it's in D.C - and the NPS said there were about 8,000 of the moonbats.

The picture was taken from the same place .. the reason you cannot see the "spire" is because they cropped it off at the top.

The picture was taken at the brige which leads into Arlington. The lamp posts were the same in both pictures. I think you're just trying to find something .. but I'm telling you there is nothing. The bridge has a grade to it so the remaining protestors are not visable over the horizon of the bridge's road.

Yeah, I know ANSWER does phoney pictures. But .. think about it .. they didn't have any reason to do that .. they weren't expecting the GOE to show up. The best they could do was lie about how many people WE had.

I don't doubt that ANSWER will lie about it again or phoney more pictures .. but I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill.

One of them is Georgetown University. In Georgetown. In the District.
