Yeah I'm a master of the language. If you look under the Reform banner there's a blue sign where the microphones were. I was trying to point out the distance. I was using a Panasonic TZ1 with image stabilization at 10X. Nevertheless, many of the pictures were blurry because of a poor shooting technique forced on me by my location in the crowd. (Phew. Communication is an effort.)
You got some great shots! Those crowd situations make it almost impossible.
