The old Lorton Prison may be closed, but by the looks of this photo from Jen Huls it is still a terrifying place. Being in a cell would be scary enough, but having to share it with the future star of the IT remake would put anyone over the edge.
This clay colored pigeon is a real scene stealer. Flickr contributor Kevin Wolf framed up the odd bird quite nicely. We can almost hear Big Bird singing, “One of these things is not like the other…”
This photograph from regular contributor Chris Suspect is part of a show at Govinda Gallery in Georgetown that’s open until January 4. The show is a collection of images that six different photographers have created while documenting various bands. Tonight there’s a reception for the photographers at Gypsy Sally’s from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. with performances from three of the bands in the exhibition.
Victoria Pickering transformed an everyday scene in L’Enfant Plaza into a frame that could have been pulled from a Hitchcock movie, thanks to the slight movement of the silhouette and positioning of the woman in the frame, and to the excellent composition and drama of the photo.
It may be very cold outside, but it didn’t stop photographer ep_jhu from making photographs yesterday. The shapes and lines in this photo look similar to sun rays, but the abstract wintry scene tells a very contrasting, chilly story.
