Happy Weekend Everyone! Hope you all had an amazing week. Here are so of the things you may have missed:

I came back from Ohio and uploaded a few images from the weekend.
Ohio had some beautiful sunsets, but the real reason why I was there was for the MidUSA Ohio Hot Air Balloon Challenge. Heres a nice one with the balloons in the sky.

Here’s my behind the scenes look behind my images:

Now that I’m back home, the heat wave has been seriously affecting my images. It’s hard to get a nice sunset or sunrise. So I figured I could go to one of my favorite spots for pictures and shoot the water at Great Falls. While I was there I ran into this pretty butterfly that I just had to capture.

This past week was amazing for my work:
I was in FamousDC for my Capitol Sunrise

And in HDR Spotting 3 times!!

Hope you all have a great weekend! 🙂

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?

This week has been so crazy!! I don’t think I’ve woken up so early this many times in a week in a while, but it was so worth it. Check out these links and see why.

I’ve been waiting for this moment for almost a year. The sunflowers at Mckee Beshers have finally bloomed.

Here’s a quick video of my experience there.

I went back to one of my favorite sunrise spots in Virginia, Great Falls National Park
Next I was off to DC for this image of the Capitol reflected in the reflecting pool and the WWII memorial at sunrise.
Thursday afternoon I hopped onto a plane and landed in Cincinnati! I can’t wait to show you guys what I’m doing here, but for now heres an image of the Cincy skyline at sunset.

I am so honored to be mentioned in Washington Flyer’s Top 100 Best Travel Blogs:

I’d also appreciate it if you all could help me out with something. I am trying to get nominated for the “Best Newcomer Travel Blog”. Here’s a link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/travel_bloggy_award_nominations
Thank you so much to 365 Things to do in DC who helped me spread the word.

Hope you all enjoy the weekend and I can’t wait to show you all more images from Cincy 🙂

This morning I really didn’t feel like getting up. I was so comfortable sleeping in my bed, getting up and brushing my teeth was the last thing I wanted to do. Then I thought to myself, “if you get a good shot today, it will be totally worth it”. I kinda took my time getting ready and was sluggish walking to this spot. I’m so glad I did thou. I’d say this is one of my best images from Great Falls.

Happy July!
Hope you all have a great holiday weekend and eat lots of watermellon 😀

This past week I had several images of DC starting from the Lincoln Memorial and the Smithsonian Castle.
Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens is a little known spot in DC where there are beautiful summer water lilies.
Just a little bit outside of DC, is Great Falls National Park.
A lot out of DC, in California, is Yosemite National Park where I posted this new image of Cooks Valley.

My images appeared in two different blogs this week 🙂
