Oh this is a winner(#2) Douglas!! Just beautiful! I have seen many views of DC from the East and this includes most, if not all, the iconic monuments and the sunrise is just icing on the cake!!
Now #1 is also wonderful! The city awakes! The long lone gray cloud really lends to the majestic height of the WM and Lincoln Memorial's impressiveness!

Thank you, Dan! The black "stuff" in the sky in the first picture were a flock of birds. I didn't bother to clone them out, too many!

Thanks Dan, it truly is a beautiful bridge and somewhat of a hidden gem being off the battlefield. The brush wasn't mowed this trip, so it was a little bit of a challenge getting close to the water. There's that drop off that's hard to see, lucky I didn't end up in the drink!

It is indeed Tim!
I am just south in Frederick County and visit the battlefield very much in all seasons!
And this gem is pretty hidden. In the many times I have been there, I was the only one there!
I like to walk down to the spillway and look back to the covered bridge and shoot. Your side is great also!
The farmer on the right side used to rotate his crops and 1 summer might be corn, for a good Fall shot..,
or soy beans and they could a show a nice Fall yellow after the first frost....
