This was taken at the same time as this lone tree and my second time trying to capture this image. I really like the softness the fog brought to this image as well as the color.

All the times that I’ve been the Lincoln Memorial, its never really occured to me to step outside and take a picture of the whole moument itself. It’s so beautiful, especially at night when the lights on the monument are turned on.
In all actually this image was not intended. I finally made it to the Martin Luther King Memorial and spent most of my time there. Walking back to my car, I walked past the Lincoln and had to stop and take a picture. The sky was beautiful with just the right amount of clouds to make the sky more exciting.
Tropical Storm Lee finally left! After 4 straight days of crazy rain I finally saw sun!!
The next morning I went out to take pictures for sunrise and I was really hoping for some crazy colors in the sky but I think I got something better. I got a beautiful sunrise with a slight fog which really soften things up.
I was really nervous once I got to Manassas, VA, where this image was shot. . Light usually peaks up about 30 minutes before the sunrises but it was so dark that I could barely see anything. If you’ve been to Manassas than you know there aren’t that many people to begin with and at 6am theres hardly anyone. For some reason I get nervous when no one is around as opposed to a lot of people around. I stayed in my car for about 15 minutes before I go the courage to finally step out.
Lesson learned when photographing after a tropical storm and fog: wear water proof pants! My pants were soaked to my knees at the end of this trip.
Hi Everybody!!
Hope you all had a great week and an awesome Labor Day! It’s been raining the past week here, so its been a little difficult taking new images. So, I made a video about it! Check it out:
Now, here are my images.
I spent a day in Rehoboth Beach over the weekend and found this very cool, very blue Vespa
Then I had to look back at some of my older images for this US Capitol shot and
Jefferson Memorial.
I finally braved the rain and visited Meadowlark Gardens for some macro images. Pink Flower Water Droplets
Now, I just can’t wait for the leaves to start changing. This image was taken last year around this tme of Shenandoah National Park
FamousDC is doing an awesome tribute to 9/11 next week where they are asking everyone to send them in pictures of American flags around the DC area. Here’s my contribution:
Hope you all had a great week and hopefully I’ll be back next week with some sunny images 🙂

Great for you daily photo bloggers or 365 projects
So, its still raining. This is forcing me to go back, all the way back to last year. This image was taken at Shenandoah National Park along skyline drive for sunrise.
Going back through these images makes me wonder how I actually took these images and what I was thinking. It’s pretty funny.
