I've been to D.C. a half dozen times or so, but this was my first time being there for the cherry blossoms! Despite the crowds, it was spectacular to see.

I am a photographer and filmmaker based in Vermont. You can see more of my work on my website (https://www.danielm.cc) or Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/dmccullum).

Did you have to wait in line to get this shot?

Nope! Crowds weren’t too crazy on weekdays. On Sunday it was nuts though!! Couldn’t even really get much as the crowds were so intense. Still amazing to see.

This shot is from Tuesday.

What exactly is the name of the place from where you have captured the photo. Will be in DC tomorrow for couple days.

Tidal Basin. Just south of the national mall.

Yep! A walk around the basin will get you lots of different angles on the monuments/memorials and cherry blossoms!

Where's stumpy?

I believe Stumpy lives in that cluster to the right of the memorial right by the water.

Stumpy is stumpy because that part floods alot, which is bad for Stumpy.
