Rounding Out the Photobloggers (Day 1)

My Bush Smells; Photo: Chris Glenn

Some photos that readers have updated us with from yesterday's protest.
- Nick alerted us to his gallery of yesterday's march, which includes this shot of the police hauling someone away.
- Corie has some shots of the post parade protesters in Central Park.
- Brooklyn Vegan has plenty of photos including one of showgirls against bush.
- 114th.net hits us with several great shots including the one of the smelly bush above (which Meccapixel has in detail) and mimes marching then lying down in the street.
- Neil has a protest gallery which has a poster of "Scream" and Fox News. Probably not the stolen one.
- Diego has a gallery of pictures from yesterday and some camera phone shots of a protest today around Chelsea.
- Whatever-Whenever captured Ronald McDonald in the protests yesterday.
- Ben and Sean frantically capture as much of the protest as they can, including a precious picture of a woman stroking her weapon of mass destruction.
- Pete has several images from Union Square in his gallery.
- Grumpy Monk captures some grumpy vets arguing with some protesters yesterday.
- Katie captures some shots around Times Square and has a take on "Riot Grrrl".
- Snaplog joins everyone else in the protest and takes a picture of sanity.
- DirtDirt has several photos, including one of the garbage left behind, and pleny of commentary.
- A photo captured by Kevin Reed asks, "Who wants cake?" We here at Gothamist always want cake.
- The gallery at MTude has several photos including something Gothamist witnessed - the bike barrier.
- Keith over at Overshadowed has a picture of a blue wall and a resilient GW that can roll with the punches.

Like Red pointed out, there were lots of people with cameras, so if you've got them up somewhere, let us know - we're seeing if we can do photoblog roundups each day of the convention.

One of my favorites: "SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT: REPLANT A BUSH BACK IN TEXAS!"

few more at my album...http://lifesrichpageant.typepad.com/photos/protest/index.html

..its also notable that after weeks of heavy armed police presence at the citigroup buildings at lexington and Park, today there is one lonely cop and no squad cars at all...has the danger to our buildings passed??

I got some photos from the big one from yesterday...also 3 pics of the one today on 8th ave. They were marching in front of my building. Go to http://diegosalinas.com

hey all, i took some pics near union sq during the protest. here's the link: http://www.pbase.com/hseikaly/united_for_peace_and_justice_rally

Saw a motorcade speed by here on 34th St during lunch; so annoying - anxious republicans...

Without a strong military, you guys wouldn't even be able to why-ne!!

Have 2/3 of my photos from sunday up... hopefully I'll be able to get the rest out tonight.

Part I
Part II

Will try to hit Union Square and the sitting meditation on Washington Square park tonight.

Sure; our military is so strong that a year later "we" truly don't control Iraq. Our military is so strong that it can't find the most wanted terrorist on the planet. Our military is so strong that it's center of operations was damaged by a commercial plane. Shall I go on? Wait - you have a war to fight.

I have pics from yesterday in Times Square here

What a mess, I guess no one was protesting against pollution given the amount of trash I saw left behind on 7th Ave yesterday. Bloomberg was right for not letting this happen in the park!

none AT NONE--so, without our string military we would not be able to protest, so we shouldn't protest. the bill of rights makes our country the best country on earth--so we shouldn't exercise our rights. people like you don't deserve to be amercian. but you are. my marine brother would put his life on the line to ensure that people like you have the right to sit around and allow our freedoms to be taken away bit by bit. The greatest thing about this country is that we are so free here, not that we can choose from 60 different brands of cereal at walmart. If you love amesrica because it's a free country than stop whining about people using those freedoms or else get the hell out of here. try iraq--i think you will you be happier in a place still without freedom of the press and freedom of assembly.

my take on the demonstration, including pictures.

i thought it'd build a link automatically, i was wrong. so, here is the link if you don't feel like copy+pasting.

I have a hearty crop of photos from Sunday (index here) as well as shots of the Ring Out rally at Ground Zero and the March for Women's Lives on Saturday.

A few more photos from Union Square and back, of great signage along the way (but filtering out the Bush and 'Richard' puns this round...)
