Photos from the Inauguration

Crossing the Washington Monument. Some people had already decided that was as close as they were getting and set up shop in front of the Jumbotrons.

Inching my way closer to the Capitol. In line to pass through the security checkpoint for blue ticket holders.

The view!

It's official: President Barack Obama!

The post-swearing-in crowd at Independence Avenue.

Great sign!

My official pass!
