Took this photo last week of this well known lighthouse which is near Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. No one else around that morning, just me and two deer.

Whether the above quote is actual by Lincoln or not is debatable, but around his D.C. memorial light is hardly what will limit you.

The reflecting pool is actually a fountain that didn't happen to be on. As with many of the fountains at Caltech, this one has a theme: the many arching jets connect to patterns set in the tile to form a double helix.

 

Taken with a Sony DSC-P7 resting directly on the concrete lip of the pool. I let the camera do its night-shot mode where it took a second exposure with the shutter closed to subtract off the hot pixels. This is otherwise straight off the camera without any further post processing.

A good contemporary building, I liked it a lot.

Designed by Steven Holl Architects.

Getting up before sunrise, and peddling across town on a rented bike share is totally worth it when the result is a sight like this. This is the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, living up to its name, and doing a good job of reflecting the distant Washington Monument.

The reflecting pool of the US Capitol, Washington, DC.

Or should I say good morning Washington, DC! Actually, The Vietnam Veterans Memorial is only about 1,000 feet from where I photographed this so I wasn’t too far from a “Vietnam” theme.

 

The ugly looking obelisk with the scaffolding is the Washington Monument which has been under construction since the August 2011 earthquake. If you are planning a trip to the Nation’s capitol soon, be warned that construction will not be completed until sometime in 2014. That’s really a bummer because everywhere you take a photograph in Washington, DC it seems the Washington Monument is always in the background.

 

I got up early this particular morning because in the spring and summer the sunrise runs parallel to the Lincoln Memorial (rising near the Washington Monument) and bathes the statue of Mr. Lincoln in warm, soft light. As you can see from my photograph that didn’t happen, so I had to settle for this lonely jogger running along the Reflecting Pool.

 

Happy Travels!

Southford Falls State Park...near Southbury, Connecticut

At the site of the Alfred P. Murrah building, which was destroyed by terrorism on 4/19/95.

As the Sun begins to drop below the tree line, a handful of ducks look for dinner, on an unseasonably warm October evening. In the background, the Lincoln Memorial keeps a watchful eye.

There was hardly anybody walking around this amazing public works project in the center of Albany, New York, the capital. Government buildings surround a reflecting pool. The Capital Building is at the rear. A very surreal place, especially since this plaza dwarfs the houses and buildings immediately surrounding the area.

One of my favorite photography locations in Boston! This was taken at dusk when there was still color in the sky.

I snapped this photo of a group of joggers who were waiting at the top of the stairs on the Lincoln Memorial to see the sunrise. While I waited with them, I also snapped a photo of Lincoln's statue behind us, also looking out across the horizon waiting for the sun to rise. Later, while processing the photos I thought it would be cool to superimpose the two images, and this is the result.

I took a very similar shot a few weeks ago. What a difference blue sky and some sunshine makes.
