This past weekend I was at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center Air and Space Museum in Chantilly, Virginia. Although this wasn’t my first time there (seen here), I took a different approach this time. I thought about how some photographs I’ve seen look kinda hectic. There are plane and other sorts of flying objects on the ground, in the air, and sometimes right in you face. I thought I’d try to find the more simple things and concentrate on lines. I love how the helicopter propellers lead your eye into the image.

FINALLY! I’ve been waiting to go to the capitol to get this reflection shot. For some reason, either the reflection pool wasn’t filled, the sky didn’t look right, or for whatever reason I could not get the image I wanted. FINALLY! this morning was my time.

One of the best parts about shooting at sunrise: lots of available parking 🙂

Before and during the DC firework show, you could actually see other fireworks going off at the same time. I’m gonna have to research a place where I could view all of the DC area fireworks at one spot. Any one have any suggestions?

Smithsonian Castle, national mall, washington dc, angela b. pan, abpan, hdr,

This image was actually an accident. I meant to go to the Hirshhorn Museum and take a few images of the architecture there, but it was all closed off. Rather than getting a trespassing ticket, I decided to go a little further and shoot the Smithsonian Castle. I’ve never actually taken the time to explore it, but if you plan on visiting, definitely head around the back and check out the garden. It’s beautiful.
