Not that the prior image isn't what I wanted to say but I could resist posting this one as well. I was aiming to capture the World War II Memorial with the Lincoln Memorial centered above it when the couple just happened to stop directly in line with Lincoln's statue and my camera. I could have edited them out, but to me their presence helped better portray the solemn mood I was attempting to capture. So too does the individual standing in front of the 4,000 gold stars on the Freedom Wall. The stars commemorate the more than 400,000 Americans who gave their lives during World War II.
