Your framing here, the light - there is something that pulls me in and I love it.

Fantastic use of infrared and positioning that balances the tiny statue of liberty with the foreground statue - really impactful.

I puzzled over this shot for a minute- I couldn’t understand where you got this large still water from - then I realized the fountains are OFF. I have never seen this shot and that's a awesome + this is a beautiful shot!

You get such a different view of DC in the early mornings. I posted a similar image earlier but liked this long exposure version too much not to share it.

Roy’s Features:

While more of a classic shot it’s a great long exposure with the sunset. You exposed it just enough where the monument itself still has a bit of shadow detail with the lights hitting it.

A great city scape shot showing the monuments towering over town. I like that you went B&W as it focuses more on structure then the brightly colored city lights.

I like that you thought out of the box! It’s a neat shot but you can clone out those leaves in the corner.
