Vermont’s most powerful photographer was at it again Monday as President Barack Obama was sworn in to a second term.

Armed with a camera and pretty decent seats, Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) captured the magic of the inauguration from up-close.

We’ve posted a few of Leahy’s photos below, courtesy of his congressional office.

Also, if you missed last week’s Seven Days, be sure to check out Pamela Polston’s review of Leahy’s ongoing exhibit in the lobby of the Vermont Supreme Court.
