SAM 28000 arrives into Canberra as Air Force One with President Barack Obama onboard. After this photo, John and I hung around for a little bit before running down to Pialligo Ave to see the motorcade. There were small groups littered along the road, and as The Beast(s) came towards us we started waving with Barack waving back at us!

Perhaps an exception be made on this historic occasion.  It's an awesome shot. Thanks for sharing.

I'd actually be happy to put that up for a POTM nomination
