Cherry blossoms with the Jefferson Memorial

This didn’t turn out quite as I had hoped, compared to my 2009 picture posted in March, since I couldn’t get both the cherry blossoms and the Jefferson Memorial to be sharp, so I opted for the flowers because the black biofilm on the memorial dome detracts from the beauty of the building, whereas the cherry blossoms were definitely beautiful!
