Why are there no photos of lincoln giving the gettysburg address? a) he asked that no pictures be taken. b) photographers did not have time to set up. c) the news media did not like him. d) it was raining too hard for pictures.

The correct option is B

The Gettysburg Address is the most famous speech by President Abraham Lincoln. It was pronounced in the Dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in the city of Gettysburg (Pennsylvania) on November 19, 1863, four and a half months after the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War. The speech was very fast and the journalists did not have enough time to take a picture of Lincoln. The only picture that exists is of the soldiers trained after the speech.
