#tbt to Christmas day and it was the foggiest I’ve ever seen the district.
winter
If you get to your location earlier enough, even on the cloudiest of days, you can still get a pretty awesome light show. This was taken last week after all the snow fell. The tidal basin was glowing in purples and I thought going behind Jefferson memorial would be a pretty cool view of it all.
This is the kind of snow I like! The kind where its on the trees and not on the roads. The kind where it makes everything so peaceful and calm. I know I wasn’t excited about it yesterday but I’m glad we got this last bit of snow before the warmer weather.
Three things I was grateful for this week:
1. YAY March is finally here!
2. Amazing colorful sunrises
3. My amazing graphic designer friend, Anelise for helping me with some website updates. Can’t wait til everything is complete 🙂 She’s the bomb, in case you didn’t know.
Just in case you were wondering, walking around in the freezing rain isn’t as fun as walking around in snow. I don’t know, its just not the same…
Since the weather was pretty crappy on Monday, I started playing this new game. Ride the metro for as long as you can tolerate, get off at a random stop, then walk around until you figure out where you are, then (thanks to my awesome sense of direction) find your way to a different metro stop, and go home. It’s a pretty fun game that you all should try!
One of my favorite things to photograph in DC while its snowing is the white-on-white. White snow with the “white” memorials. It’s so simple and beautiful.
While walking around the other day I saw the WWI memorial out of the corner of my eye and made my way over there. It’s a memorial that’s not photographed often but it’s definietly not one to pass up. I got the standard shots of the memorial with the trees surrounding it but it wasn’t until I stepped into the memorial with the beautiful columns and trees that I got really excited.
OK, I changed my mind again. I’m back in love with snow.
Popped a few valentines day chocolates for breakfast and I was off to shoot on this very white Presidents day.
