03/27/2023 10am: It's been a really busy weekend so I have a huge backlog of images to process. Major sets that are still waiting to be processed:
(Thursday) Golden Haiku entries around the Golden Triangle BID.
(Friday) The new AfroFuturism exhibit @ the National Museum of African American History and Culture, the new Lights Out: Recovering Our Night Sky exhibit @ the National Museum of Natural History, the networking and reception event @ the 49th Annual Conference on DC Historical Studies, "Delikado" @ DC Environmental Film Festival.
(Saturday) Abraham LIncoln 2023 Symposium @ Fords Theatre, "#DamBusters" and "The Scale of Hope" @ DC Environmental Film Festival.
(Sunday) Cherry Blossoms and the Blossom Kite Festival @ the Washington Monument, DCEFF Vantage Grant and "To The End" @ DC Environmental Film Festival.
Total number of photos in the queue: 10,400.
The cherry blossoms around the Tidal Basin weren't exactly at their peak on Monday but the weather forecast starting Tuesday sucked so I had to do what I could. (White blossoms need blue skies to photograph well and the forecast was for clouds and rain during the actual peak.)

A temporary flag exhibit, the United in Blue National Mall Installation, was installed near the Washington Monument this week. According to their web site, the installation is a visual representation of more than 27,400 people under the age of 50 estimated to be diagnosed with colorectal cancer .

The Golden Triangle BID in DC has installed signs with the 2023 Golden Haiku contest winning entries from around the world. Their site ( https://goldentriangledc.com/events/golden-haiku-2023-winners/ ) documents the 142 different ones around the sector. Finding them all will take forever but some show up on most blocks in the BID.
As you walk about
Let random visions inspire!
Think outside the box
