Ok, I'll post them one at a time.
My "disadvantage" was that I was in the very front row and couldn't get a crowd shot, as I went alone and couldn't leave my spot without losing it.
Anyway, here is a shot of Tom Smith, who was the first of the politicians to arrive. Very nice guy. This shows how close I was (no zoom!).
