I’ve had a few questions about how I’ve shot the Air Force Memorial with the whole memorial in it. There’s no secret that I love my 17-40mm wide angle lens and this is what helps me get the whole thing in frame. It also helps to get down low.
After the sun had risen on Monday and all the colors in the sky faded away, I turned to the Martin Luther King, Jr Memorial. It was glowing orange from the sun and made for a beautiful contrast with the sky.
On my continued quest to get a beautiful picture of the Air Force Memorial…
Mr. Jefferson looking great in his memorial.
The Air Force Memorial is one of the newer monuments in the DC area but also one of the more difficult monuments to photograph. The monument is huge! Make sure to bring your wide angle lens if you want to get the whole sculpture in one shot.
