Yesterday morning's warm sunrise light on President Lincoln's face at the Lincoln Memorial. Nice to capture his face in warm sunlight when the sunrise aligns with the memorial around the spring and fall equinoxes. #lincolnmemorial #sunrise #equinox #washingtondc #thephotohour

An Indigo Bunting with the sunflowers this morning at McKee-Beshers. I returned in hopes of capturing better Indigo Bunting photos. Persistence paid off! #Sunflowers #indigobunting #bunting #McKeeBeshers #MarylandDNR #mdinfocus #birdphotography #birding #stormhour #thephotohour #NikonZ8 #NikonUSA

This framed view of London's Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben), Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge is great day or night. I captured it on vacation last year over the holidays. #travelphotography #nightphotography #london #bigben #elizabethtower #WestminsterBridge #thephotohour #nikonusa

Thanks Brad! I was at ground level, but I agree that the tight crop makes it look like I was in an elevated location. The sign is over 100’ up from the water.

Full Moon rising over the ancient Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion - Greece. This moonrise alignment was on my photography bucket list, and I was fortunate to capture it in August, 2023. Forecast is cloudy tonight in DC. #thephotohour #templeofposeidon #sounion #fullmoon

Thanks Adam! Hope to get back there some time in fall (when there is less water flowing) for some tranquil waterfall shots.

My bad - It's Elakala Falls in Blackwater Falls State Park. I was working on a photo of the actual Blackwater Falls before this one and didn't switch the name.

Blackwater Falls last Saturday in monochrome. Kinda like today's weather! It's another great West Virginia site to photograph. #almostheaven #blackwaterfalls #waterfall #landscapephotography #monochrome #bnw #blackandwhitephotography @spann.bsky.social #thephotohour @capitalweather.bsky.social

Thanks Adele! It’s all so fragmented now. Not sure what I’m doing, but I still like to take the photos. :)
