Yeah, thanks, I looked at other pics online and seems like the monument is the tough part getting details, and seem to be more bright white than others around (capitol, memorials, white house, etc)
BTW I have another thread posted "DC Shots 2" check those pix out too
I live close but it was another shot. Since I'm a beginner, I take as many possible in different setttings then I play with the RAW files after I come home. Some pix are probably overexposed because beside some of my mistakes using the wronf settings, I also brightened them after PP for the look. Maybe something not alot of people are liking....
