Inauguration of President Barack Obama
Description
The 2009 Presidential Inauguration was the first in which the entire length of the Mall was open to spectators. In previous years, parts of the Mall were used as staging areas for the inaugural parade. In this photo you can see that the crowds stretched all the way back to the Lincoln Memorial.
