Squeeze Em In! Smuckers Flies Honor Flight
My carefully planned photograph of the 200 person Canton Akron Honor Flight went off without a hitch. I was adding and subtracting people to make them fit into the frame of my “not wide enough” lens! Worked like a charm! The Smuckers Corporation sponsored two Honor Flights so far. And I’m going to be drinking [...]
Jane’s Corner
Jane Howitt began working with me a couple of months ago and studio productivity has skyrocketed. She oversaw the revision of the WWII Memorial book through its final stages and is now deep into the revision of the DC PHOTO BOOK. She is also working on a series of posters which we soon hope to [...]
Cherry Blossoms: 100 Years
The Cherry Blossom Festival has been extended this year to accommodate a record 2 million visitors. I’ll be down at the Cherry Blossom Festival Welcome area signing WWII MEMORIAL: Jewel of the Mall and DC PHOTO BOOK: An Insider’s View for the National Park Service. Eastern National, an educational affiliate of the Park Service will have a tent [...]
House of Sweden
My sunday riverfront odyssey turned into a triple header. The Georgetown Waterfront has been enhanced on the East with the House of Sweden’s clean, green and hip design and our new park on the West.
Lincoln Light
I must have fifty discreet “views” of the Lincoln but it seems there is always another.
Potomac View
Scouting an architectural project along the Potomac, I realized I have only been on the River once before in my three decades in DC! I jumped on the Riverfront Cruse which was just arriving and it turned out to be the last ride of the season! As I got on, I recognized Captain Bob [...]
DC ALOFT
Upriver from the House of Sweden. If you are familiar with my publications, you know that I am always in search of unique and grand views of DC. It’s the most beautiful of the great cities and I’ve found you can while away 35 plus years photographing it. If you are not familiar with DC PHOTO [...]

The Doles have been regularly taking wounded soldiers and their families out for a “night on the town.” For Senator Dole’s 88th Birthday, they invited them to their Washington home. The Doles [...]
Martin Luther King Memorial
This image was taken about a month ago. As I was wondering along the Tidal Basin on the way to the WWII Memorial, MLK was exposed! It looks to be a beautiful memorial and I am looking forward to photographing it more thoroughly when it opens this August 28th.
WWII Veterans stream into Memorial
I got a schedule of Honor Flights yesterday from Glenn Anderson who is running the welcoming committee at BWI airport. His devotion and the devotion of his volunteers is absolutely amazing. This week, there were ten flights coming in and out of BWI almost everyday of the week as Honor Flight organizers deal with charter [...]
My Father Remembered on Veterans Day
A salute to my father Edward Brown on this Veterans Day. Like many WWII Veterans, he never made a fuss about his military service either before the war on a Destroyers at Pearl Harbor or during the war in Brazil where he was on the crew of a PBY (submarine hunter). He used to [...]
