Here are three scenes from around Union Station I in Washington D.C.

Pentax forums seems not to like embedding images from fstoppers, but I can't delete the thread and start over so I guess I'll post the photos in this reply.

I love the symmetry of the arches with the people in the distance. Nice shot.
The majesty of the flag poles and columns is really disrupted by the contrast of the tent. That's a story in socio-economic contrasts, and I think there is more to that story you could expand on.
The questioning look on the smoker's face is amazing.
Thanks for sharing these.

Thanks! That's what I like the most about the photograph witht he tent - it feels like it has a lot of contemporary events referenced in it. The masks, the police officers, the flag at half mast (this was right after the order to lower them for the covid deaths) and so on. It's one of the pictures I am more pleased with than not.
