I've resided in the Foggy Bottom district (3 blocks from the National Mall) for the past two semesters while attending the George Washington University. I'm transferring to SCAD next fall, but I'm still going to miss it here.

These are a few shots that I've taken from around the city:

1) WWII Memorial
140751484-L.jpg

2) "Metro Man" - Arlington National Cemetary Station
116904918-L.jpg

3) Whitehurst Freeway/ K St, NW Intersection
105376000-L.jpg

4) Lincoln Memorial Circle
115278029-L.jpg

5) US Capital Building
115111285-L.jpg

6) Snack Vendor Near the National Mall
115111550-L.jpg

7) "Word to Your Mother" - Newspaper Stands Outside Smithsonian Metro Station
115111578-L.jpg

8) Korean War Memorial
115205866-L.jpg

I hope that you can enjoy these photos as much as I have enjoyed living here.

C&C appreciated - always!

    I like #1 and #8
    #8 would be better without the over exposer on the left but I like the colors and you've got some nice solid blacks in it.

    I spent 1 1/2 months in a hotel in pentagon city about 3 years ago. It's a great place to spend some time. The only problem is finding that new angle on a way to photographed spot. Have you done any night shots with a monument in the background.

    I agree! I constantly have to distinguish myself from a tourist. Haha!

    Here's one of the few "night monument" shots that I've done - taken from the roof of 1957 E St, NW.

    I'm still wanting to get a shot of the Kennedy Center and [???] Bridge at night from the waterfront on the way to Georgetown - hopefully this week. I'll post it when I do!
