Solitude in the City
by Helen Betts

Washington, D.C.

I was really aiming for a shot of the Washington Monument in the Reflecting Pool, but have never been able to get a decent image there and still can't. But I actually thought this was a more peaceful setting, without all the tourists (and there is a bit of a reflection :-)).

Beautiful capture of the monument reaching up to the sky - I love the layers of clouds, and the calm, rippled water, and the little duck swimming through the reflection!
