Flag Man

I love his expression and the way he's holding the American flag after taking it down in front of a building.

Love of art

I could tell from this woman's expression how much she and her friend loved art at a recent Art Museum opening.

Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis

Last weekend I toured the Cathedral in St. Louis, it has the most amazing mosaics which were started in 1912 and completed in 1988. Over 41 million pieces of glass created by over 20 different artists.

Lincoln Birthday

In memory of Lincoln's 200th birthday, the Lincoln Memorial in Washington is one of the most beautiful monuments in DC.

Madonna

A statue of Madonna at the Sisters of St. Joseph mother house from 1840's. I love the setting with the stain glass, I added a strobe on the left side to improve the lighting on the statue.

inauguration traffic jam

I have never seen so many people than in Washington for the inauguration. Even the interstate was used to transport people into the capital grounds. Although we didn't get into the inauguration it was an unbelievable experience. Look for the arrow in the aerial to see where we were.

Ice Crystals

When shooting an event I noticed these beautiful ice crystals on a window. They didn't show up against a light colored background but really pop when I put a black background behind the window.
