Occupy UC Davis - Nov. 21, 2011

by MicheleTobias on November 21, 2011 - 17:36
balloon-mapping,

Students, faculty, alumni, and the community in general gathered to voice their disapproval of the pepper spraying of non-violent protestors on campus. The photo here is unprocessed, but a stitched one will be coming soon! The photo was taken with Stewart's helium balloon using a point-and-shoot camera and a smart phone took video of the crowd. The crew: Stewart, Liz, Michele, and Alex.

This image of Occupy UC Davis is incredible. I loved zooming in to find someone occupying the tree top in the lower left corner. Stewart, Liz, Michele, and Alex--great work!

Is it possible to see more photos from November 21? My sculpture students
initiated the wire memorial sculpture, and I am wondering if your camera
saw it? Great work, great image, thank you!
