Soles of Silk - washington monument

It's been months since the last time Charlee and I did a shoot for the site. During that time we still discussed some ideas and one of them was to do something in the nearby city of Washington, D.C. With all the national monuments there, I suggested we do a set with one in the background for the site's 2010 Fourth of July update.
As you can see in the first photo below, the monument we decided to use for the set is the Washington Monument. After looking for parking for what seemed like an hour, we made our way to the tall obelisk. We started shooting out by the road, but with all the trees around, the sunlight wasn't the best. We made our way closer to the monument and then even right under it. In several shots, I even shot her under the monument, but with the Lincoln and World War II Memorials in the background.
In closing, Charlee and I would like to wish all of our American members a safe and happy Fourth of July!
