Obama Flickr Update: Chris Christie's Got My Back

Obama Christie Flooding Desat

Obama Cantor Jobs Address Desat

What’s most notable about the new batch of photos — 26 in all — uploaded to the WH Flickr Stream? Besides the cornucopia of 9/11 photos, what stands out, with “Chris Christie’s got my back,” “Barack and Eric Go to the Presidential Address” and “NASCAR champ in the house as we look at pics on his iPhone,” is (per usual) all that visual triangulation.

(Desaturation mine.)
