A Washington Reflection

October 22, 2011, Washington, DC: I set out early this morning on a big red beach cruiser ready to document one of my former Washington neighborhoods. It was the first morning in months my bike brakes were cold to the touch, and a stark line of clouds dramatically divided our city, slicing it precisely down its east and west sides. To be honest, the day grew grayer and more bland as time went by, and I'm still considering how to inject some punch into my photo essay of Dupont Circle. For now, I share the highlight of the morning -- a photo snapped from the east side of the Capitol Building, five minutes into my long morning ride.
