Last week when I was invited by the US Department of Interior to attend the Washington Monument reopening. It was so much fun because I’ve lived in the DC area and have never been on top. A beautiful view of the Lincoln Memorial, WWII memorial and constitution gardens.
Light traffic on the Memorial bridge.
Over the weekend, I was leading a workshop at the WWII memorial at sunset. We packed up our bags and was headed to the car when I noticed some color in the sky. We turned around and the sky was bursting with orange from behind the Lincoln Memorial. We just had to stop and enjoy the view 🙂
I’ve always wanted to take this shot, but from the middle of the street. How awesome would that be? Only problem is all the cars 🙁
There’s always a ton of tourists at the Lincoln memorial during sunset. It’s nearly impossible to get an image without them. Sometimes they can add to the image though. I thought there was a bird by the columns while I was post processing but when I zoomed up a little closer, realized it was a guy with his hands in the air. HAHA!
I was a little early for the sunrise so I thought it would be cool to try to get some light trails. Buses are the best for this, but didn’t have any luck 🙁
