Photobloggers are Gothamist's eyes on the street- so for the next four days, we're going to feature a wrapup of all the RNC photoblog posts we can find. If you want to send us a link, leave it in the comments or email Jake. Today's amazing photography from the march: Joe Holmes, Citying, more Citying, Erin's pix at fshk, and Buzznet's NoRNC. Good shots of the dragon burning at IndyMedia. And since we didn't do a roundup on Day Minus 1, check out the pictures from yesterday from Rion, MeccaPixel, Callalillie, and Youngna. Oooh- we almost missed some nice shots by KDunk, NYCAC, and Red. Dozens of shots from Angryfinger. Last update for Day 0 @ 12:19am EST: Meccapixel from Sunday's rally, WhatISee (a number of posts), GL331, more Buzznet, Estren, great pix from Matt Law, and some Flickr coverage! Ok, we lied. Just a few more: Jason Kottke hits the streets, and Rion continues her great work. And Jesse Chan Norris sent in this great late edition.

I can't believe how many cameras were out at the march today. everything was there: film, digital, 35mm, medium format, large format, holga and a even a pinhole. crazy. and I've never seen so many Nikon D70s, D1s, D100s, Canon 10Ds, Digital Rebels (300D), and 1Ds. it felt like everyone and their mother had a digital SLR.

Slight correction - that link (http://www.flickr.com/photos/ntang/sets/6137/) I gave wasn't flickr coverage, I was giving you my personal rnc protest gallery.
Here's a link that includes other flickr users' images:

Unfortunately, there's no sure-fire way to get 'em all, as that only includes the images people tagged with "rnc" as a keyword.
Any photos of protesters assaulting Republican delegates? Seems to be a popular pastime: http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1896&u=/nm/20040830/us_nm/campaign_protest_broadway_dc_4&printer=1
Try as hard as you like - you're not going to stop the convention and all you'll accomplish is to scare the undecided voters into the GOP camp.
"Any photos of protesters assaulting Republican delegates? Seems to be a popular pastime"
That article mentions one person who shoved somebody, out of hundreds of thousands of protestors today.
If a choice made by .001 percent of a group is your definition of popular, I hope George Bush turns out to be "popular" too!

Nice pics (I really need a blog so I could post my photos), but--you photobloggers DO realize that Communists for Kerry aren't actual Communists, right? Kottke seemed to think that they were. I mean, just check out their website. I actually saw some people in the march clapping for them, even though they were obviously infiltrators.

The march started out well and continued that way, but towards the end a 34th street confrontation with protesters and police left a bad taste in my mouth. If you check out my photos you'll see what I mean.

Hi, I write Octomoto, a new NYC blog focused on emerging art + the art of emerging. We just posted a very cool, though modest, collage piece on citizen photograhers in the UFPJ march. It's called Million Media March. DO check it out.
I took over 150 photos at the protests and will be posting them (along with stories) over the next few weeks. Why Are We Back In Iraq?
