As a new resident of Washington, D.C., a photographer for 10 years and counting, and a lover of photo blogs, I’m excited to present this addition to the blogosphere…

My aim here is for the blog to encompass upcoming exhibits/shows/events in the local photography scene as well as publish remarkable images of D.C. – it IS a most photogenic city. Whether it’s monuments glimmering at night or rowdy protesters, there is endless subject matter. This gives me an opportunity to share my own photography – and get me out there shooting, and hopefully to share photos submitted by readers. I’ll also highlight interesting photos I come upon, vintage and contemporary, of the area. I’d like discussion to be open to any controversy surrounding certain exhibits, reviews and opinions of shows, ideas, photogeekery and more…

So, welcome to the blog  and please enjoy. I’ll leave you with a photo I took when I was working on the National Park Service’s National Capitol Region Annual Report – which seems to fit the theme.

That’s the Jefferson Memorial, btw…
