"In case you missed it, this is absolutely my favorite image from the State of the Union. I happened to see it float by on Twitter this morning, but it wasn’t accredited, so I regret that I can’t identify the photographer. I’m sure we’ll know his/her name soon enough—I think it’s destined to become iconic.

"To begin with, look at that perfect framing. The first woman Vice President in stride, backlit by a rectangle of soft light, with Old Glory also bathed in that light. She’s dressed to kill in a tailored suit, high heels, head held high, looking as confident as any Vice President in memory. Her entourage leads the procession with (I assume) her security detail, then the Vice President, then behind her per protocol, the alpha males of the Senate; Schumer, McConnell, Leahy and Thune picking up the rear. The two massive gold-framed paintings on either side remind the viewer of just where they are, of the gravitas of history, and what happened in this very place a mere 13 years ago.

"Add a highly polished floor mirroring all of the above, and you’ve have a photo for the ages."
