Last year my awesome aunts bought me a TravelZoo deal for a photo safari with a professional photographer, since they know my secret favorite pastime is photography. This past weekend I finally got around to using it! The original deal was actually for a walking tour of the memorials and monuments in the DC area - but those were all booked (probably because of the close proximity to the highly anticipated cherry blossom season. No worries though! I was able to take tour with the same photographer, only inside the Museum of American History. This actually worked out perfectly because the lessons were all focused on taking pictures in low light - which I hadn't mastered yet.
It was really a fantastic time - I spent the whole afternoon touring around in the Museum of American History looking at some of the exhibits like I really hadn't before. I really enjoyed getting home and downloading the pictures... I was pleasantly surprised to see a major improvement from the first few shots through the last couple! I can definitely say I'm a lot more confident in my ability to take good pictures in low light situations now!
Here are a couple of my favorite shots from the day.
