I’ve been photographing the Reston Station complex with the drone for several years now. The mixed lighting sources are plastically dynamic, and you can’t be the diagonals in the Helmut Jahn building..

Van Gogh Bridge, Lake Anne
About 10 years ago, I got an assignment from Reston magazine to make a portrait of the town’s founder, Robert E. Simon, near this bridge. The trees were at peak flower, as they are in this photograph, but Simon’s schedule was too busy. He penciled me in for the following week, but not before…. a storm blew all the petals off the trees. We did the shoot anyway.
The sun was obscured by clouds this morning, so the light didn’t quite happen. I’ll be back.
