Late Light Reflected [Washington DC Pictures]
Uploaded: July 06, 2012 04:08:26
Taken about 30 minutes before actual sunset last week, out shooting at the Lincoln Memorial with Renee, Linda and Gail. I'd walked around
to the back (west) side, and saw the almost-horizontal golden sunlight pouring in from my right, between the massive fluted columns.
Just off frame to the left is the flat, massive expanse of white marble wall; the back wall of the building. So it was acting as a giant
reflector, bouncing that golden light right back at the "backside" of each column. It stopped me in my tracks!

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
