The National World War II Memorial in Washington DC Freedom Wall. 4,048 gold stars pay tribute to American lives lost at war (each star represents 100 Americans), while dozens of battle names and military campaign destinations are also on display. In front of the wall, a stone fittingly reads, “Here we mark the price of freedom.”

The Washington Monument in Washington DC stands 554 feet tall. At night it's easily seen from most of the Capital Hill area as a brilliant white spire. I photographed it slightly out of focus with just enough detail showing in the bricks of the monument and the clouds in the sky background. There are fifty US flags flown around the Monument and I chose one to act as my foreground visual anchor.

Photographed in August 2016 this image was taken as a full sized image and cropped to highlight on the 50 flags and the base of the Washington Monument. The camera caught the clouds making for a great back drop.
