memorial
Taking this image took about an hour. At first, the sky wasn’t very exciting and pretty cloudy. I thought, “I’m already here, might as well as wait to see what happens”. About 20 minutes later all these colors started showing and the clouds started to part. I love days like this. It’s so exciting to see what’s going to happen.
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.

This was my third attempt at going to the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial. Why so many? The first time I went, it was closed. The second time, I was not happy with the images I came out with. Third time is the charm 🙂 I had heard that this memorial was finally open 24 hours, meaning I could go there for sunrise (my favorite time of day).
The weather in DC has been kinda crappy lately. It hasn’t really felt like summer for the past few weeks and the rest of this week is calling for rain. This is forcing me to look back at some of my old shoots and see if I can find something worth while.
So, I know I have lots of images of the Jefferson, but this one is kinda different than the others because this is the back side of the memorial. A side that isn’t viewed very often.
The Jefferson Memorial isn’t just for the Cherry Blossoms, it’s beautiful anytime of the year. Although when I went this morning, I didn’t get the shot I expected. I wanted to go down closer to the tidal basin and walk around to try to find my perfect image. Come to find out it was flooded. All these thunderstorms got in my way again! Rain, rain go AWAY!
