I like the simple composition, and the beautiful colors and detail.

Jo, Sky and Denise, thank you for the kind comments! Jo, you might be able to get a sense of the size of the Lincoln Memorial from thishttp://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/69118443 -- it's definitely a pretty large monument! Helen

I can only judge the size of the Lincoln Memorial on the base of some internet pages but you have done a good job hiding a very large building. I like the broken vertical lines on the stairs and the repetition of the ornaments on the building. Very nice shot. Thanks for entering.
