the big picture

She complained about my not taking the big picture shots this weekend. I guess I have been on a details kick lately. Here's something closer to the big picture from the National Cathedral.

exiting the garden

I love using framing and interesting points of view. The cherry blossoms are a bright addition to an otherwise dreary Sunday.

snowdrop

The snow had all melted by the time I made it to the cathedral. Too bad; it would've been lovely.

'tis the season

It's been a few years since I've managed to venture out at exactly the right time to get a decent shot of D.C.'s famous cherry blossoms. It's that time of year, and yet again, I'm going to miss peak bloom; this time because of a wedding. One of these years, I'll get down to the Tidal Basin before sunrise and get some classics.

planning

With snow on my windshield, I found my way to the cathedral with a freshly-charged battery. I had a few ideas in my head for what I wanted to capture. It took a little while longer with services going on, but I needed some religion anyhow.
