Terminal Walkway, Ronald Reagan National Airport, Washington, DC

Ronald Reagan National Airport, Washington, DC

Nope, we weren’t photographing anyone famous. I was a member of a “photo safari”  that allowed us to photograph the interior of the airport. This particular site was an exercise in capturing the leading lines and repeating architecture of this terminal walkway. I decided the shot would be much more fun and interesting by capturing the other photographers and the movement of the approaching travelers.

“137 years later, Memorial Day remains one of America’s most cherished patriotic observances. The spirit of this day has not changed – it remains a day to honor those who died defending our freedom and democracy.”

I have been intrigued with Japanese Gardens and now convinced that I will create one, of course in a much smaller scale, on one side of our home. This Shinto Shrine can be seen overlooking the beautifully landscaped Japanese Hill and Pond Garden at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Constructed a century ago way back in 1914, it happens to be the first Japanese Garden to be created in an American public space.
