The Queen

Queen Elizabeth arrived at the White House this morning and I was one of the thousands there for the Arrival Ceremony. Here are a few pictures of the Queen and President Bush both of which made brief remarks.
Officials including Condoleeza Rice and the Cheney's on the far right.
The President with his hand over his heart during the National Anthem.
President Bush got a laugh we he almost said that the Queen made a visit to the United States in 1776, meaning of course 1976.
The Queen speaks.
Mrs. Bush and Prince Philip join them to make an appearance on the balcony and wave good bye.

I used the 70-200 L IS f2.8. I cropped in on most of them too.
