Lincoln Memorial kissed with Blossoms


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist    Jefferson  Memorial  kissed with Blossoms
Jefferson Memorial kissed with Blossoms
This is my of my favorites. I like the image of the memorial in the background with the blossoms. I took this in the morning and used my digital on a tripod. I had to be careful as the place was full of people and it was hard to capture one without people in it.

Thank you for the nice comments. I actually didn't try to frame the picture. I was trying to get a close up of the cherry blossoms....and sometimes mistakes make the best photo's. Glad you liked it. Shelly

  i love the jeff mem being a blurry bg...you didn't run into Cathy Gregor amongst the cb's...she shot some of the same things...by the way I'm not a golfer nor is my hubbie, but I'v been to the Master's for the last 5 years and him for 12 so most likely will go back next year if you still want a hat then...just keep in mind in advance of the Master's

  Whether it was intentional or not the curvature of the tree is a terrific frame, along with the blossoms and the memorial in the background, Shelly! Very well done!!
Much Aloha,

  Hi Shelly,

The building in your picture is the Jefferson Memorial in the Tidal Basin, not the Lincoln Memorial.

The picture is very nicely done. Congratulations!!!
