George Washington Parkway Sunrise Photos

One of my New Year's goals was updating this blog at least a couple of times each week.  I am not doing so well on that.  I have plenty of content, but after everything else in the day...

This update is actually not even my content.  My daughter Eva have been taking iPhone photos from the car during her morning ride to school.  Her commute follows the George Washington Parkway from Alexandria to Washington, DC so most of the photos are taken through the trees looking across the Potomac River.  

Some of the photos are taken with the window down, and some with the window up.  Because of the moving car, slow shutter speed and occasional rain or other stuff in the way, the photos have a distorted, almost watercolor look.  I love it, and think I will be getting some of these printed.  

I especially like the photo with the jet taking off from National Airport.  Somehow the clearly articulated jet is an interesting contrast in what could otherwise be an abstract painting.
