One of the coldest months that I’ve ever known finished off in grand style.  While I must admit that winter is my second favorite season, I must admit that I am excited about photographing some more exciting colors than just taupe, blue, and white.

Here are some sights from the past week and 1/2 in the greater Washington area:

Beauty after the storm…the commute to work this morning wasn’t nearly as pretty

The Potomac steams at sunrise. A day of warmer temps and rain caused many eareas upstream to melt. The “warmer” water steams in the 13 degree air.
