Happy Birthday, Mr President

Uploaded: February 22, 2011

Description

The light on Mr Washington only lasts for a short period of time ...The Capitol police refer to it as the George Washington spotlight. I was shooting in the rotunda and one of the Capitol policeman told me about the light and when to come back to see it...needless to say I was there the next day. The amazing thing about this light is you simply do not see it with the necked eye...

Virginia State Capitol...Richmond VA

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/20 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 24.00 mm, Model: NIKON D2Xs
