The Obama inauguration<\/em> turned out to be a rather a non-event for many including some photographers who were trapped in an underground queue despite holding tickets.\u00a0 Jacquelyn Martin <\/a>spent the day photographing some of those around her who didn’t get to see the event but were caught in the Purple Gate “Tunnel of Doom.”<\/p>\n

One of Mustafah Abdulaziz’<\/a>s images also seems to show a similar tunnel, but obviously he didn’t get trapped and managed to turn in a nice essay on the people who came to the event, even if\u00a0 he wasn’t anywhere near the President either.<\/p>\n
