shame



This photo was not taken by me, but by my grandfather or father. I scanned in the print, and adjusted it to accentuate the dark moody feel the photo seemed to convey to me. It is remarkable to me that in the astonishment of the moment of his resignation someone would be moved to photograph the television. I know those were different times - no internet to store and archive images that would be instantly available later - but still it is the only photo of a television broadcast I ever remember seeing.
