ANGELA B. PAN

This morning from the steps of the Lincoln memorial, right where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous “I had a dream” speech.

I’m trying to work on my panoramics so this shot is actually 18 images into one huge picture.

The Washington Monument at sunrise. I had expected this sunrise to be a little stronger and more colorful, but still beautiful nonetheless.

Last night I was out taking pics of the sunset by the Capitol. Although it was beautiful, I think the building was covering most of the color. As I was walking back to the car, I noticed this amazing orange glow coming from the side of the building and immediately asked Andrew to drop me off by the Monument so I can get a better view. I may have missed most of the orange glow but I’m glad I got to capture some of the night sky.

Last night’s blue moon.

I’m trying to practice my full moon shots. I don’t think I’ve quit perfected them yet because every time I go, it’s hard for me to find the perfect composition. The photographers ephemeris app helps but I still need to practice my timing.

Yes, its true! I was out taking sunrise pictures as usual right by reflecting pool. I was waiting for my camera to take the pictures and decided to look at what time it was. I wanted to see how much more time was left until the actual sunrise. As I took it out of the pocket of my hoodie, I got bumped out of my hand. I saw it drifting towards the edge of the water when I watched it go in. I was in total shock and stood there for about 2 minutes.

RIP iPhone5.

The Washington Monument at night all lit up with scaffolding. Beautiful!
