I’ve been away in Washington, D.C. to attend Photoshop World. I’ve been going yearly for more than a decade, but it’s fun. I’ll talk more about Photoshop CS6 in a future post. Derry and I arrived by train early on Thursday, when the weather was very warm (in the 80s). The pre-conference didn’t start until Friday afternoon; thus we had all day Thursday and a good part of Friday to take in the City. Over the weekend, while we were busy taking at the conference, it rained and was windy. By Monday the rain cleared, the conference was over, and we were able to take in more of the City. However, by then, nearly all of the Cherry Blossoms were gone!

The blossoms are just stunning. Glad that you got a glimpse of them before they left. Thanks for sharing!

the cherry blossoms may have been gone, but it seems we got our own post card pack of pics…. you seem to have covered all that is D.C. in Spring with your shoot.

Thanks Judy! I’m glad I had a chance to see and experience them. It’s been one of those things I’ve wanted to do for years. :)

Wow…these are fabulous pictures! What were you shooting with? Your Nikon? iPhone?
Happy Easter–

Thanks Susan! :) The pictures of the windows were taken with my Nikon D90, the Metro with the D90, and Union Station with my iPhone using the Camera Awesome app.

You nailed it on the exposures. Nikons are so nice. I will have to check out the Camera Awesome app. Difficult lighting in that setting…they look great!
