Columns and Cumulus Clouds

February 03, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

I'm a big fan of cumulus clouds. Unfortunately, it seems we only get great skies here in Washington when I'm stuck in the office at work. We get some great sunsets too, but I have to admire them through my office window.

Fortunately, Friday was different.  It was a cold, beautiful day here in Washington. We had some great cumulus clouds floating over the city, and I was able to get off work a little early. So, I grabbed my camera and tripod and ran over to the National Arboretum. I was prepared to head out with all my gear at the last minute and I was rewarded with some great skies and late afternoon sun.
