• How to view and photograph the DC landmarks •

Viewing and photographing the icons of Washington, D.C., is high on the list of many Americans and world travelers who come to the U.S. Capital. Where should you go, and when, to get the best views and save them on your camera? Maybe you photograph with a mobile phone. Maybe you are a dedicated pro with your SLR camera and a tripod. Maybe you just record the view in your mind and want to know more about the edifice you are seeing. This app assists all who want to experience and photograph Washington, D.C.

Award-winning travel photographer Lee Foster shows you more than 100 top views of Washington, D.C., in this travel photo guide. He indicates exactly where to stand, and you can verify with the accompanying map that you are in the right place. He notes what time of day is best. He explains the significance of the site, making this both a travel and photo guide. He gives tips on photo techniques for special situations, such as shooting fireworks on the 4th of July.

Foster presents all the views alphabetically, so you can go immediately to the subject of your interest, perhaps the White House. He also organizes all entries by "neighborhood," such as The Mall, so you can see all the options in one area. Finally, he alerts you to concept "groups," such as Seasonal, which acquaints you with year-around possibilities, including the Cherry Blossom Festival of late March and the Smithsonian Folklife Festival in June.

Use this app to make your visit to Washington, D.C., memorable. With this app you will be assured that you can view and photograph all of the exceptional sites in this remarkable city. All the photos and writings for this app are by Lee Foster.
