Washington Monument




These are a few pictures I took of the Washington Monument. The first one was taken from the WWII Memorial. The other was taken from the base of the WM. Check out the 2 colors on it. Did you know that when they were building it they ran out of money and had to quit. When they went back to it they couldn't find the correct color so they went with it. Do you know the difference between a memorial and a monument?

  1. Great combination of shots - the second really gives a totally different feel doesn't it? Perfect perspective!
