It is not New and it is not Order.

Another one from the FDR Memorial.


[This one was taken at twilight, which required a long exposure; it was also taken almost a decade ago, so digicam tech wasn't as good as it is today. That's something kind of sad about going back and looking at some of my early photos; I really love the setting and conditions, but the photo is limited by the camera, especially when trying to print at a large size. Trying to retake them today by duplicating the exact conditions would be difficult and in some cases completely impossible. Ah, well.

Tomorrow's photo is an excellent example.

Oh, and the motion-blurred gentleman petting the dog is the friend I came up to DC to visit. :) ]

The man and dog add a nice contrasting touch to the formality of the statue. I see what you mean about the long exposure, though. I hope you had a nice visit back then!

Just to note, the dog is also a statue. :)

And yeah, I had a good time in both visits. Thankfully, my prime motivator for one of the visits is gone - he was having serious liver issues and his life expectancy was questionable. Since then, he's had his transplant and is doing very well.

LOL, you can tell how good my visual acuity is. /o\

I'm glad to hear your friend is in good health now!
