I was disappointed to see nothing was happening so I headed across Pennsylvania Ave. to Lafayette Park looking [...]

ZUMA Picture of the Day
The last photo I shot while covering the historic Health Care vote in the House of Representatives over the weekend was also the first photo I shot on Monday, March 22, 2010.
This photo was a happy accident. It was 1 a.m. and after covering the healthcare vote for 16 hours, I was looking for my ride home. I came across this man sitting on the Capitol steps. He looked so alone. It was not until I asked his name that I discovered he was there to protest bill and arrived late and missed all of the hoopla. The moment just seemed fitting for the days events.
My ride had left without me and I had to have my lovely wife, Jenny, come and give me a ride.
Sometimes a bad turn of events can turn into a good thing.
My agency, ZUMA Press, picked the photo as one of their Photos of the Day.
The image can be found on my Photoshelter Archive (Click here).
