Lincoln Memorial

A crazy cloudy morning at the Lincoln Memorial.

and then all of the sudden this huge group of students started running towards the memorial. It was kinda cool because they were cheering each other on running along the reflecting pool. I figured they were some part of a co-ed collegiate team getting their morning workout in. They ran up the stairs of the Lincoln and sat down to acknowledge some of their achievements.

Happy Weekend!
I made a video introducing myself to the youtube community and on my site. I’m pretty happy with it:

It’s pretty cool that I was able to get so many images from just one shoot. See what I mean:
I went to Manassas the day after Tropical Storm Lee left. I got this cool Foggy Tree, Stone House, and Canon on the Battlefield.
The actual day Tropical Storm Lee left I captured this image of the Lincoln Memorial at Sunset.
I’ve finally captured an image of the new MLK Jr. Memorial that I’m happy with.

Hope you all enjoyed the video and images.

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.

There was nothing particulary difficult or challenging about this shoot. I had to be patient waiting for some boats to clear the way and hoping for some nice light from the sunset. Other that it was pretty smooth.

It’s getting pretty difficult to figure new places to go around DC, especially for sunset because there are very limited spots where the sunset actaully looks good.
