Arlington Cemetery at Winter

Another throwback photo of the Arlington Cemetery. It's tough to shoot during winter but it's also good as I am able to go back and see what I have shot the past few years. :)

The Dance

Posting some of my old photos that I just opened and edited. :)

Here's one on movement. Photo was taken in one of the cultural shows here in Washington, DC. I think this was from the George Mason University. the University's Filipino Association holds annual cultural shows. We were lucky to have been invited to one of them.

Capitol

This photo was taken in winter 2014, when scaffoldings have not yet enveloped the Capitol dome. This year until next, the Capitol will have its "braces" for its restoration.

The DC Airstrip

“The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings.”
