Description

Another capture from my walk around the tidal basin. You could see the Washington Monument from almost every location, and I thought it was beautiful with the fall leaves. I also got a nice reflection due to the overcast skies. Captured with my point and shoot and added a touch of Topaz in post. DC was such an amazing city. It rekindled my photography bug which had been lying dormant for a few months (lack of inspiration? or just too darn busy?) :)

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: -0.33, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, red-eye reduction mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 7.78 mm, Model: Canon PowerShot A3100 IS
