OK, from one angled DC shot to another! I took about a gazillion shots at this angle waiting for the flag to look just right....

Good for you! I had the same experience -- it took a lot of tries to catch the one image where "it all came together". Great compositional symmetry and repetition here. You filled the negative space better than most of our compositions.

All good things come to those who "Wait", I really like this POV. The important question is ; Who took the picture of you taking a picture of it.?

Great job in waiting for the perfect shot. This is a fresh view of a well photographed landmark and it works beautifully. Filling the frame with the flag was a great idea as there is no way to get a traditional POV shot of that skinny monument that is nearly this dramatic.

I love this one Deb! It's hard to get a different view of something so famous and I think you did a great job :)

Thank you everyone! I appreciate the comments :) Rita, this is the actual sky, not a replacement, but I did play with it a bit. It was a pretty drab day, so I tried to enhance what was there!

Bravo on waiting it out! I really like the POV, angle, and esp. the slight blur at the end of the flag to shows it was blowing in the wind. :~) I do see some color banding in the sky of pink and cyan, but it is so very slight.

I agree with everyone :) Your flag is so recognizable; doing a similar shot with a canadian flag wouldn't work as well, I think

I was just going through my shots of the Washington Monument . . . none of mine have the impact this one does. Dang! Fantastic job Deb. I'd hang this on my wall, I really love it :)

Makes my heart thump just to see old Glory flying and your POV makes it even better. Thanks for taking the time to get this.

As others have referenced Debbra, this is a very unusual view of the flag and the diagonal works perfectly. Yup, I like this!
