Exposed DC

for the love of DC photography

In Frame: Best of 2016

By

HAPPY 2017, friends!

It’s been a wonderful year in image making. I’ve seen hundreds of extraordinary images on our Flickr page and our #exposeddc Instagram tag. Photography is my life and I’m so grateful to share it with all of you.

It was such a difficult task to select my 10 favorite In Frames of from 2016, but ultimately these images are the ones with which I really felt a special connection. I’m looking forward to seeing what you all enter into the 11th annual ExposedDC photography contest–enter your best work showcasing life in the metro area before January 11. And keep making pictures–I cannot wait to see what you create this year!

All my best,

Caroline

Waiting by Dennis Dimick. Officer monitoring entrance to parking lot at West Arlington Hall Park, Barcroft, Arlington Virginia. 7:02 a.m. December 23, 2015. (Arlington Hall 20151223-1651)
Waiting by Dennis Dimick

Sometimes when I’m browsing through our Flickr pool, I instantly see an image that really strikes me. This photograph by Dennis Dimick is one of those images. I can feel the humid air in Arlington, and sense the mood of the waiting police officer. His wait is not anxious anticipation — it’s a calm pause that happens early on dreary mornings when things are slow to start. I encourage everyone to look at  more of Dimick’s work on his Flickr page. He has a lot of other wonderful images.

Meanwhile, don’t forget our 10th annual photo contest is still open for entries. You have until January 6 to submit your top D.C.-area images!
