Fall Colors In Wissahickon Valley Park

Yesterday, Sunday Nov 09, I went walking through Wissahickon Valley Park in Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia PA with a friend. The fall colors were vibrant and beautiful although the sky was somewhat cloudy.

This scene (I’ve captured it the past few years) always reminds me of a water color painting.

VIDEO - My Barack Obama Handshake

UPDATE!! 10-04-2008: MY VIDEO WILL APPEAR ON CNN! This morning I received a phone call from CNN that my video, also submitted to their iReport website, would be picked up for on-air use. First, Philadelphia City Paper.. now CNN. This has been a big week for me!

Vincent J. Brown:

October 3rd, 2008 (Abington, PA) - Barack Obama, while campaigning in the Abington suburb of Philadelphia, shook MY hand. A wonderful experience. Here’s the video

In the video, you can hear the Secret Service agent talking to me. First telling me to move my camera behind me because it was hanging over the railing and Barack Obama, speaking directly to me calling me, “Sir.” Better photos from my Canon DSLR to come.

Recorded with a jailbroken, 16GB Apple iPhone 3G (white)

UPDATE: CNN.com features my iReport video under “Latest News”
