Some old Washington DC pictures from my NYLF trip...(7 images)

David A · Oct 20, 2005

Well, while I was up at the National Youth Leadership Forum on Law, they allowed us to walk around the city for a day by ourselves just to get a feel as to what it would be like if you were to live in DC. Anyway, of course I took advantage of it and brought along the trusty Fuji S5000...Here are some of the results...alot of them are simple and centered in the frame...sorry.

As always, any and ALL feedback is welcomed and encouraged. Thanks everyone.

I think all the pictures are good.
However, #5 is amazing

It has a such a steet photography feel

Great shots. I really like all of them, but my favorite is #7. The colors are very soothing and you used the available lighting well. You have a good eye for composition. I wish I had started at your age. Good job

(Good luck with your weekend Ben...drive safely) :thumbup:

In neither of these, the central focus bothers me in the least!
I think if works really fine in all of them (those, where it happens, that is).
In all of them there is something that leads the eye right there (save the last two), and I like that.

And the subtlety which which we are lead towards that Column in the background of Photo 5 is amazing. And you are dealing so well with the bad weather situation, too! Very atmospheric!
Yes, I, too, like this one best of the entire series.

Have to agree...number 5 is really a special shot. It really says 'captured moment'. Very fleeting in time.
all very nice shots..thanks for posting them.
