Washington Landmarks

View from the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC. In the distance looms the Washington Monument encased in scaffolding as it is undergoing repairs from an August 2011 earthquake. The US Capitol is partially visible in the distance behind it.

Very Nice ! Very Sharp!
Have never seen this view before - Nicely captured.

What a great perspective! Love the light and shadows that fall across the floor of the Lincoln Memorial, the touch of a reflection in the pool of the Washington Monument... and I sure wish they would get it together down there in the Capitol building :) Like that you included a person... gives nice scale!

Very cool perspective. I heard on the news today that some one three green paint on the LIncoln Memorial. Fortunately it did not do any serious damage

[Scott]

@bkbinthecity Yes, I saw them scrubbing it off and took a few pictures (you could see it but it wasn't real bad). I just didn't want to post any photos to further publicize what one or a few bad apples had done.

I love the perpendicular lines flow with the pop of color in between them. Everything is complimentary in the combination together.
