K, so I'm not really sure if this violates any POTN rules or is in the wrong forum, but thought this was really cool compositing of the inauguration. I spy anyone? :)

Professional cameras? Perhaps not the personal property of the photographers.

+1 Thanks for the link. All the camera gear is amazing. And its fun to check out the Washington pecking order by seeing who got to sit where. Chaney looks like some dark spy with that black hat and coat. Justice Thomas looks like he is asleep.

Looks like they're clamped on to the plywood. I'd imagine the white stuff is paper meant to help camouflage the whole setup although it isn't helping much.

I'm going to go with them being supported by magic, and the white stuff is ectoplasm from the ghosts who are operating the cameras.

Seriously though, there is probably something down to the right that they are clampled on.

Edit: I just looked at the picture some more and DANG that is a lot of people.

You can actually see some type of super clamp at the base of the magic arms...
