Description of Pictures: Join Us for the Largest Climate Rally Ever:
Join us in Washington, D.C. on Sunday, February 17 for the biggest climate rally in history. On President's Day weekend, we're calling on President Obama and all our leaders to take bold and decisive action on climate change.
We'll be joining groups like the Sierra Club, the Hip Hop Caucus, 350.org, and tens of thousands of people like you. And we'll tell President Obama that it's time to move forward on climate.
Same Event: Wait! There's more! Because I took too many pictures, photos from this event were divided among the following pages:

CLIMR_130217_607.JPG: I loved the "There is no Planet B" sign.
Stitched photos: "Stitched" photos are made up of two or more individual photos merged together to form one big picture by overlapping them. While the results are frequently impressive (being able to see panoramic views), the photos are seldom all that precise due to distortion as well as differences in lighting and exposure from picture to picture.
Size of Stitched Photos: Stitched photo files end up larger because the photos are combined to form one larger photo. While the file sizes aren't bad for the 160x120 and 640x480 pages, the original stitched files can be 10+ megabytes each. To save space, the biggest versions of the stitched photos are not loaded on the site.
