Really rich colors and beautiful reflections. I like the simplicity of the fourth shot the best but would be proud to have taken any of them.

Stefan, you really captured some great colors here. It is nice to see the Potomac on a clear day, when we were last in Mount Vernon, it was raining and rather cold. Thanks for the visit, very beautiful area

The Takumar 28/3.5 really surprises me. I owe it those rich colors; a very underestimated lens, I think.
Thank you for dropping by and for the nice words.

Thank you, Dave; it seems the old Tak 28/3.5 likes rivers

Tess, thank you; coming from you, such words are really flattering. My pleasure sharing my pics--which positive reactions from fellow Pentaxians greatly amplify.
