Sightings

January 20, 2009 | 3:18 PM

From my perch in a press section near the front of the Capitol grounds, I saw the famed photographer Annie Leibovitz snapping shots of the inaugural ceremony. Wearing a black cap and black ski jacket and hiking boots, she darted about, changing cameras frequently, and shooting the officials on stage as well as the grand landscape of people who filled the National Mall.

NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg and companion Diana Taylor perched in the back of the press section. He told a colleague that he was headed back to New York after the ceremony. Via Amtrak.

A hatless Usher wandered through as well. Adding a dash of cool to the pit.
