5.0 out of 5 stars
Stunning photographs portraying the majestic stature of DC,
By A Customer
This review is from: Washington, D.C.: A Photographic Celebration (Hardcover)
The photographs in this book are not your basic click and shoot, but rather have depth and character showing the memorials and monuments in a richer light. Truely shows DC for what it is, an international landmark!

Three Stars,
By A Customer
This review is from: Washington, D.C.: A Photographic Celebration (Hardcover)
Good photos, but it would have been much better if the book was printed "landscape" instead of "portrait".
