This is the back, and this is the front.

The Udvar-Hazy Center is another one of those places where you can’t use tripods in the DC area. Its understandable because this place can get really busy and it would just get in the way. So what do you do if you have to take a long exposure photo? Hold your breath!

This past weekend I was at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center Air and Space Museum in Chantilly, Virginia. Although this wasn’t my first time there (seen here), I took a different approach this time. I thought about how some photographs I’ve seen look kinda hectic. There are plane and other sorts of flying objects on the ground, in the air, and sometimes right in you face. I thought I’d try to find the more simple things and concentrate on lines. I love how the helicopter propellers lead your eye into the image.

Do you like the title?

Yesterday when I was walking back from taking pics of the waterfall, seen here, I saw a few butterflys picking at these flowers. I really wish I had my 100mm macro lens so I could of gotten a better shot, but I had to make due with my 24-105mm kit lens.

It is HOT! Not really temperature hot, but humidity hot. This whole week I’ve been trying to get up to take some good sunrise shots, but the humidity has been blocking the sun, so I had to come up with something good. I thought Great Falls might be the best solution, if I focus in on the water the I wouldn’t necessarily have to have too much of the sky in the image. What do you think?
