As I mentioned on my previous post, there are countless ways to photograph the Washington Monument. I wanted to photograph the flags and capture the circular effect with the clouds in the background. I used my 72mm CPL on my Tamron 17-50mm VC F/2.8 to darken the blue sky and to enhance color saturation and wanted to pop those clouds.
Please see the map to see where I was when I took the photo above. You can zoom in and out or pan left and right buy using the map navigation on the upper left corner of the map.
