It’s Hard To Forget The Best Photos From Obama’s First 100 Days – Huffington Post
And it became clear that there was a stark difference in the intimacy of Trumps photos compared with those from President Barack Obamas first 100 days, likely because of the wealth of images captured and shared by White House photographer Pete Souza. (You can revisit them all thanks to the archive on theObama White House Flickr.)
Souza captured many iconic images during Obamas first 100 days, ranging from private Super Bowl screenings with 3D glasses to quiet moments with first lady Michelle Obama.
