Washington, DC - day and night
Had the chance during a business trip this week to get out for a few hours with my travel set-up - a 10D and Sigma 18-125mm, which performed quite well. Here's a selection:
The Whitehouse:  Capitol building:  And a couple of (noisy) night shots - the Lincoln Memorial:  ...and the Washington Memorial:  Comments welcome - thanks for looking  |

Re: Washington, DC - day and night
Since you didn't mention a tripod - I assume these were hand held - all the more impressive on that night shot.

Re: Washington, DC - day and night
Thanks
Indeed, no tripod - I just used whatever I could find for support - for the shot of the Washington memorial, with the camera on the very edge of the pool, I lay full length on the ground to frame it, and then pressed the shutter as gently as I could to start the 8 second exposure |
