Autumn in DC

I got inspired by yesterday's diaries, so I grabbed my camera and drove around the DC metro area, stopping on the GW Parkway, Great Falls National Park and the new Air Force Memorial. Below are the results. I hope you enjoy them. If you like them and want to see more, you can go to my website: Meredith Klinger Photography.

Interesting to see this after your initial photo of the Washington monument. The Washington monument is so, er, masculine. It is interesting to me that the Air Force one is quite the opposite.

In VA, right around the corner from the Pentagon. It is in an area called the Navy Annex. I don't live too far from it.

I like this one best. It looks like a child's drawing of a tree, with the clouds topping the sculpture. It's extremely organic.
