Empty Sky Memorial
The Empty Sky memorial in Liberty State Park. I have been here many times over the last 5 years, but it wasn’t until yesterday that I really “saw it”……if that makes sense. I was there about an hour before sunset….perfect time for this amazing ring of light to appear and bring to life the 746 names etched along the walls.

The Lincoln Memorial
Late last summer I took a trip to Washington DC and decided to spend my last night photographing the Lincoln Memorial. I waited patiently for about 2 hours while the crowds made their way through. Then, at about midnight, the last person left and I was alone with Mr. Lincoln. As I set up this shot, I was overwhelmed with a great sense of awe....of all that this great man had done. I just stood there, sort of frozen in time. When I got home later that week, I looked back at this photo and was surprised to see that I had unknowingly captured the entire Gettysburg Address on the left wall.
