    #1

    It silhouettes the plane better.

    I actually like #2. The plane in #1 seems a bit artificial. #2 seems more natural to me. Cool pic!

    I prefer #1, the shadows on the trees in #2 seem too dark to me.

    Also wondering if you were able to get the shot looking up the mall including the Lincoln and Washington monuments from where you were. It looks like the Jefferson monument on the left, and if I'm picturing D.C. geography correctly the Lincoln monument and the rest of the mall shouldn't have been too far out of frame to your left...

    Hi Travis,
    I had trees blocking the mall so I couldn't take the pictures...
    This is from near the Lee estate in Arlington cemetery.
