A little chilly perhpas, but still you had a nice day for seeing the sites. Beautiful capture of the monument. I expect we will see the man himself further along?

Dear agent,
I would expect something more advanced from you.
Namely,
more patience to wait till everybody is gone from that place
[or proceed with our standard rules meaning 'elimination'].
Otherwise, great.
Yours SAM

Looks great against that sky Jimbob. Very good clarity too. I see that they had no snow on New Year's Day. But it came soon after I suppose.

Oh yeah. Loved this place. Seeing it at night with Lincoln in that big old chair is just unbelievable. Still get the chills thinking about it. Super shot Jim.

The trick, Jimbob, is to show up just after sunrise with an Uzi. It's easier than cloning out the tourists.

Beautiful shot. I don't recall see those lights and cameras in 1957. That is one gorgeous but wintry looking sky. Works perfect with the building.

Good shot JimboB but I am looking forward to the one I can set on his knee and tell him what I want in the way of freedom.
You make being a tourist look quite attractive.
Excellent edit per usual.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Photo taken while in Washington D.C. while chatting with the current President. I had no idea. Did you have your picture taken with him?

Beautiful capture of the memorial on this cold day. Cold doesn't bother the color though, it's a great photo.

This is what I like about this site, that we get to see places around our world that we may not have the chance to see ourselves, and we see them through each other's eyes and lens. This is beautiful Jim and I think it looks a magnificent building set against that quite dramatic sky. Well done!

A great image for a great monument Jim, I like how you composed your picture, showing us lot of details as the name of states along the roof. Very well done
