West Wing Photos

I had my photos of my West Wing tour developed today. Having 35mm film developed seems so, um, ancient? However, my best camera is still my Pentax ZX-7 SLR, and that is what I used for my West Wing photos. Here are some of the photos I scanned in today:

Right before our tour, the President arrived back at the White House. This is the helicopter coming in for a landing on the South Lawn:



Every morning, the President walks down this walkway on his way to the Oval Office:



This entrance of the Oval Office faces the Rose Garden. The President usually uses this entrance for practical reasons. If he were to enter through the West Wing, all activity in the corridor would have to cease, and all personnel would brace the walls out of respect. Given that the West Wing is a very busy place during the day, this just isn't practical.
