Al Gore came to address the attendees at the RSA Conference last week, and as part of his appearance, he was asked to do a “meet and greet” for some of the VIP types at the show. And of course yours truly was asked to record these handshakes for posterity.
It seemed untoward me to ask for a photo with Mr. Gore, so I told Sara to stand by the camera and I’d make like I was metering him for the photos. Hmm…a perfect ƒ5 at 1/50 and ISO 640.
It serves me right that I took such an awful photograph. But it was really a thrill to meet Al. He’s whip smart, very funny in a self-effacing manner, and polite in that genuine Southern way. A real Tennessee gentleman.
