Description:
Crowds gathered in front of the White House for inauguration day. Grandville High School student Justin Irish took this digital photo during President Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony on Friday January 20, 2017 in Washington, D.C. Irish attended the event through an international leadership group called Envision. For the 16-year old junior who is interested in politics, this was his first trip to D.C. and first time flying.  With the dream of a career as a political journalist, another exciting part of the event was that he took on the role as an amateur reporter for MLive. This photo is part of a collection that was featured in this online news article:  http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2017/01/inauguration_day_photos_captur.html

Justin Irish’s photos are a record of what he saw around him during the ceremony that included crowds of President Donald Trump’s supporters and political protesters. These images are significant because they capture the spirit of this controversial, yet important day in American politics through the eyes of a local West Michigan high school student.
