Cherry Blossom Sunrise


So I got up at 5am this morning and made it downtown to the Mall by 6am...in hopes of beating all the other shutter bugs and tourists...and more importantly to find a good parking spot, which I did. The weather was great, not a cloud in the sky and a perfect sunrise was captured. Its not really all that amazing how many other people were out there at 6:30am too, it was gorgeous. However, it was like a Nikon and Canon camera convention. I only lasted about 2 hours before I got annoyed by all the people with their dogs, little kids and tripods blocking the paths. I did manage to get some pictures of the Mall at sunrise and some at the Tidal Basin with the blossoms.
