Thanks, Gene. That seal looks quite content. B&W seems to work on this photo...

 

Oops! It is a seal. Embarrassed.

 

LOL, I didn't notice your error. That's OK, we all make mistakes. A zumba pal mentioned a gathering where folks would meet at a church and walk around the local park. The organizers were requesting a donation for the Salvation Army. I didn't plan on walking, but the park is the same one where the zoo is located. So I wrote a check and headed out. I was a week early. The walk is next week. Thankfully, I saw her husband in the parking lot of the meeting spot. He was there to head out on other charitable work.

 

Lainey, you found your calling with the lens. Its been enjoyable watching how your photos continually get more impressive. I don't want you to get a big head over that statement. Well, if you want to, that's ok you've earned it.

 

Thanks so much for those kind words Dave. I so enjoy the hobby. Nature is a great subject. Some of the photos were taken through glass which makes for a challenge

 

Quality is not that great, but the Wash Monument is so striking with the sun shining on it. Almost looks like a photoshop.

 

But as usual, Congress appears to be pretty much in the dark by comparison.

 

Good one, Tof. I needed that laugh this morning. MsP, that is a wonderful pic! WOW. I have to say if I were you, I'd be entertaining myself watching whatever is going on through those windows across the street. Remember that movie where the guy was in a wheelchair and saw a murder take place? Yikes!

 

^ Well, I do have a pair of binoculars.

 

ROFL. I have to admit there have been times I've pulled mine out.
