And now for a deviation from battle flags and SCOTUS rulings. I was recently in DC for a few days and here are some photos I took in DC Metro stations. I always find the combination of architecture, geometry, and lighting to provide for some interesting photographic opportunities.

    Nice pics. DC Metro stations are under-appreciated. They’re beautifully designed and, as your photos attest, the lighting in the underground stations tends to be really cool and dramatic.

    Very nice pics Steven. Available light shooting there is a challenge to which you obviously rose up to.

    They were designed to evoke the feel of the major monuments. Great, unless you like to read, or see where you’re going.

    I was just in the DC area for the first time a couple weeks ago, and using the Metro as my sole source of transportation for those three days, I too was deeply impressed by the aesthetic beauty of the stations. I would love to live in the DC area someday. As a Poli Sci grad student, perhaps I will get my wish.
