The Lincoln Memorial, an iconic DC tourist attraction, is crowded and bustling year round. But in the middle of the night, when it's empty and quiet, it becomes a very different place. It's solemn and peaceful in a way that takes you by surprise. I lingered longer than I needed to when taking this photo.
Part of my "slightly better versions of the pictures of local attractions you might find hanging in a cheap hotel room" series.

@[email protected] I always have doubts about taking a photograph of something famous... there's so many out there already and it's hard to do anything that doesn't feel tacky.
