Description Tonight a memorial service was held in memory of those who lost their lives on 9/11/01.

The President of the Student Government Association is seen here holding a candle and American flag in respect for the firefigthers and all impacted by the catastrophe.

As a photographer, capturing this moment makes me feel good, almost as if I held a candle too ... instead of a telephoto.

That's incredible. Just an excellent exposure and composition. I really like the inclusion of the flag, it's a lot better than my Virginia Tech vigil photo from school. Did you use noise ninja or some program to reduce noise? Maybe it's just the great Canon NR and low noise at high iso over the Nikon.
Can't wait until I can afford my own L glass.
