So, it’s that time of the year again 🙂 Can’t wait! Facebook has been buzzing with all this cherry blossom talk and I want to be a part of it too!

To add to the conversation, I’d like to mention that Capitol Photo History Tours (led by Rick and I) is kicking off our first tour with the WWII memorial, WWI memorial, MLK and cherry blossoms! It’s going to be an awesome day.

There are so many people at the Tidal Basin in the mornings because of the cherry blossoms, that you kind of feel overwhelmed. Its hard to get a good spot, unless you get there super early or you decide to go against the crowd and photograph something else. Everybody seemed to be shooting the Jefferson Memorial, but I noticed that the Washington Monument had all this color behind it. So, I quickly turned my camera from the Jefferson to the Monument and found a perfect spot where the cherry blossoms were framing it.
