While in DC earlier this year I found a few hours spare off work one afternoon and was able to walk around a bit. Of course I wanted to do the stretch from Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial, and this was in between those two. Behind me in this shot was the famous reflecting pool – but this was being redeveloped and was nothing but a construction site on this visit, which is a shame.
I got down pretty low for this shot, but that was essentially just so I could remove all of the people from view who were standing on the other side of this fountain; I quite liked it though.
Today I finish with my meetings and the ‘business’ part of my trip; and what a looong week it has been. In a few hours once my meetings are done I’m looking forward to walking the city and taking some shots.
Fresh composition of a often photographed icon! I like it!
