Sumatran Tiger CubsOn August 5, 2013, the Sumatran tiger Damai gave birth to two tiger cubs at the National Zoo. Bandar and Sukacita (SOO-kah-CHEE-tah) were on display for the first time on November 18. I was eager to shoot them playing around in the yard and got out there shortly after their debut.
Happy Holidays!In the spirit of the holidays, I took two photos of the Capitol and the 2013 Capitol Christmas Tree. The first is a photo of the Capitol at night with the Capitol Christmas Tree lit up and reflected in the Reflecting Pool. In previous years, I've taken similar photos of the Capitol and the Capitol Christmas Tree, but this year the photo is a little extra special because I received some cooperation from Mother Nature—the air was still and the waters in the Reflecting Pool were perfectly still, allowing me to capture a wonderfully sharp reflection of the Capitol and the tree. The second photo is a closer shot of the 2013 Capitol Christmas Tree in front of the Capitol. The 2013 Capitol Christmas Tree is an 88 foot tall Engelmann spruce from Colville National Forest in northeast Washington State. It is decorated with thousands of ornaments handcrafted by the children of Washington State. The Main Reading RoomThe Jefferson Building of the Library of Congress is one of the most beautiful buildings in the world. While the Library of Congress generally allows visitors to take photographs in the Great Hall, photography is generally prohibited in the stunning Main Reading Room, except once each year on Veteran's Day. On November 11, I ventured over to the Jefferson Building to shoot the Main Reading Room. It was a fun excursion. I've always been very fond of libraries and the Library of Congress is a very special place. Here are a couple of my favorite shots of the Main Reading Room. I hope you like them as much as I do! Photography exhibit at H St Coffee HouseMy photography exhibit at H Street Coffee House & Cafe is now on display! The exhibit will run through January 23, 2014. I attended the opening reception last night and the exhibit looks great! Thanks to everyone who attended the reception. I appreciate your support. Coming up: exhibit at H Street Coffee HouseBeginning this Saturday, eight of my images will be featured in an exhibition at H Street Coffee House and Cafe, 1359 H St NE, Washington, DC. They will be on display from November 23, 2013, through January 23, 2014, and I will be present at the opening Saturday night, from 7:00 to 9:00. I put a lot of work into the printing and framing of the images in the exhibit and I can say they look fantastic! The images are printed on high-quality luster or cotton fiber fine-art paper using professional-grade pigment ink for superior image quality and long life. Prints are matted with acid-free paper and framed in matte black wooden frames with non-glare acrylic. Each print is also signed and available for purchase. If you are interested in purchasing one of the framed prints displayed in the exhibit, send me an e-mail to arrange for payment and delivery after the exhibit ends on January 24. |
