Wow! You sure are a REAL photographer! People and scenics abilities, both. Most I have met do one or the other. I think the classic single oak would be my favorite in the sequence, but you sure have made it a very difficult call. Excellent... thank you.
I've lived in the D.C. area all my life, and am ashamed to admit that I've never visited Dumbarton, though the site has been frequently recommended to me.
Hi Skye, Here is the link to Dumbarton Oaks. I mistakenly called it Gardens.
I highly recommend a visit. You will love it. September would be a nice time to go too.
http://www.doaks.org/ The Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection is an international center for scholarship, providing resources for study and publishing scholarly works in Byzantine, Pre-Columbian, and Garden and Landscape Studies. Begun as a private collection by Mildred and Robert Woods Bliss in 1920, and given to Harvard University in 1940, the library and collections include art objects, artifacts, manuscripts, and rare books. The house and collections are currently undergoing renovations and are closed, but the garden remains open to the public.

Beautiful! Nice work, UF. Where is this?
It is from Dumbarton Gardens in Washington, DC.
What is left is only a small portion of the original rolling acres of garden. It really is like Heaven.

Looking again, it is not an oak, is it?
Thank you, defiant infidel!
I'm not sure if it is an oak tree. But it was an amazing old tree.
I'll be posting more soon.

AOW,
You would love it. The setting, the plants. It is so peaceful and serene. I highly recommend it. Next time I'm in DC I want to go again.
Dunbarton Gardens, DC? I will make a point to visit the gardens when I'm back in DC for the Freedom Walk on Sept 9th.
I'd like to try out some of my gradient filters in this garden. Are there any rules regarding tripods?
Beautiful set of photos, I will have to add this link to Ancora and MidnightBlue.
