100 Days, 10,000 Snaps—White House Photographers Get Busy
The official White House photostream on the website Flickr boasts hundreds of extraordinary photographs of president Barack Obama's first 100 days in office. The candids—of the Obama girls playing on the swingset with their mother, the president rocking out at his Super Bowl party, and relaxing with some birthday cake at an Oval Office birthday party—paint a picture of a first family getting used to doing *everything* in the spotlight. It's voyeuristic, but well worth the peek!
