Latest Stories: Election Day's portraits

This is a series of portraits of Obama’s supporters who I covered in Times Square, New York, on the Election night, just after Obama was elected as US’s 44th president. Obama became the 44th president of the United States, as the country chose him as its first black chief executive. A vast number of people in US have been looking for the change and freedom with Obama and his campaign. Now most of them, like these images of people in Times Square, really feel the change and freedom (although huge obstacles are still looming in future). They become so ecstatic, --- many were crying – after Obama’s landslide victory and during his victory speech.
