Martin Luther King Day

On my way home from work on this punishingly cold Monday morning, I noticed the "Sister Bridges" were all lit up in red and green, presumably as a way of at least denoting or, at most celebrating Martin Luther King Day. Yes, it's cold as balls out there and yes, I'm only in scrubs, under my winter coat (and hat and gloves and neck warmer) but I felt compelled to stop for a few pics. I tried not to do the same-old, same-old so I present these two views. I know, I've done light trails by the bridges before, but I don't think I've done them on the Andy Warhol Bridge, the one most of the morning buses cross. It was much easier to get a light trail shot here than on the Clemente Bridge, which seems to be the bridge of choice for everyone else, save for a very infrequent bus. The second shot is more along the lines of what I had in mind when I decided that I wanted to capture - and show you all - the red and green lights on the bridges. Somehow, it doesn't look Christmasy to me while using red and green. Anyway, I'm tired and rambling. One causes the other to happen, so forgive this long, boring description. Have a great Monday and if you're in the USA, please, just do the best you can. :-)

Pixel 6 "Action Pan" in action - accidentally! I don't know how I managed to turn it on but I did, and I kind of like it.

De momento creo que será la última foto de paisaje en un buen par de dias a no ser que encuentre algo que realmente valga la pena enseñar, creo que va siendo hora de cambiar un poco de estilo y dedicarme más al macro, estudio (no al de coger libros y ponerse a empollar) , callejeo,... lo intentaré, pero no garantizo nada jeje.

I went for a walk around downtown last night. It's been awhile since I've just walked around with no particular destination in mind. This area through the fountain on the Martin Luther King Jr promenade always catches my eye.
Philipos Melaku-Bello, who has maintained the peace vigil by the White House for 37 years, is expanding on MLK's message this morning by Lafayette Square.
