Here is another photo from the Washington D.C. area. We had dinner in this area with our good friend, Nick. Toward the end of dinner, I went off and captured a few photos of this cool location. This is the pedestrian bridge along the Anacostia River.

At last weekend’s Steelers playoff game, these 2 jets flew over the stadium after the national anthem was played. I think these are US Navy F-18 Hornets, but I’m not 100% sure. Do you know?
By the way, this is another example of minimalistic photography. What is that you ask? It is a style using a minimum amount of components such as color, shape, line, and texture. It is highly subjective and the meaning is up to the perception of the viewer.

Today’s photo is from the Navy Yard area of Washington DC. I took this last August, while MJ and I were there for some work meetings. We met our friend Nick for dinner at this nice restaurant called Due South. You can’t really see it in this photo, it’s behind the trees in the background of the pic.

We just got back from a wonderful trip to Washington DC. I’ve been to D.C. probably 30 plus times in the past, but I’ve never had a chance to see any of the museums. So, we set some time aside to visit some of the Smithsonian museums. We got to the Natural History, Gallery of Arts and the Air/Space museums. I have to say, they are an amazing resource for our country….and they’re free! We also went to the Arlington National Cemetery, U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial, Washington National Cathedral, JFK memorial, Vietnam memorial, etc……. Just fun….oh and the weather was hot!!!

This is a supersonic aircraft was expensive to operate and the high speed isn’t required for all combat roles. This plane was dedicated to ground attack and emphasized efficiency, range, and weapons capacity over speed and maneuverability. This aircraft type was commissioned in the 1960’s to replace the A-4 Skyhawk on Navy carriers. This specific aircraft was carried aboard the John F. Kennedy during Desert Storm. It is on display at the Carolinas Aviation Museum. I took this photo last summer and created it with a 7 exposure auto-bracketed image.

I would like to start by telling you I am sorry I haven't posted anything lately with my normal every other day routine. I’ve had some additional travel, which took Blair and I down to Georgia. On the way, we stopped in Charlotte to visit family. While we where there, we went to the Carolinas Aviation Museum (http://www.carolinasaviation.org/). It is a relatively small air museum but it had some interesting items.
This is a picture from that spot. It is a Douglas A4 Skyhawk, which is a carrier capable attack aircraft developed for the United States Navy and Marines. It went into use in the early 1960s and was used by the USA into the 1990s. It is still in use by some militaries around the world today such as the Brazilian Navy.
