The nice part about living and working in DC is to see views like this during your morning commute. It makes traffic go by so much faster. At least for me 🙂
Hello :)
The DC War Memorial is tucked away behind the Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool. I feel like not many people know about it or get to visit, but it’s still a beautiful memorial all on its own.
I was hoping the colors in the sky would come over the bridge but it never did. Thought it was a pretty cool “peak-a-boo, I’m not going to see you” kind of image.
Saturday night’s sunset was amazing, wasn’t it? I left the GW parkway and as I was driving home, the light wouldn’t go away. It was just there teasing me. So I had to find somewhere to try out some twilight shots. The Air Force Memorial was the perfect place.
In an effort to explore new places with my camera, I was on the GW parkway this weekend. This was at Gravelly Point Park. A place I remember visiting a lot when I was in high school but haven’t really been back since.
It’s a nice area with a lot of families picnicking and lots of people running and biking along the trail. As far as taking panoramic views, I think I should of gone a little further down the trail. Either way, I think this is a cool vantage point of Reagan airport. Trying to capture the planes landing at sunset? Now, that took a little more patience.
Not only is sunrise beautiful, but if you wait a little bit longer. 20 minutes sometimes 30 minutes, you’ll see this gorgeous light reflecting off of things and you’ll fall in love with the morning all over again.
Did that make sense? I dunno. Early morning light is just awesome sauce no matter how you put it 🙂
