- What's up, it's Andy Feliciotti
and welcome back to another video.
This morning I'm gonna be heading down to the Tidal Basin
to photograph the cherry blossoms at peak bloom
and I thought I'd bring you along with me.
And for the camera nerds out there, I'll be shooting
on the Canon R5 with a 35 millimeter and 1.8 lens.
So let's not waste any more time and let's set out.
(magical calming music)
It's crazy to see how few people are here.
They closed most of the parking lots
so I think a lot of tourists didn't come down.
(upbeat music)
(bright music)
Somebody said the road is close.
I love getting this photo with the two holes here.
(upbeat music)
Okay, I was wrong about the cars being closed.
(upbeat music)
Can also get a view of the Washington Monument here with
the Magnolias and these nice yellow leaves here
at the bottom.
(bright music)
I believe this is one of the oldest trees just cause
of its condition but I'm not sure.
Let's get a shot over here.
Right now you'll see a bunch of scaffolding on the front
of the Jefferson Memorial.
They're adding a museum to the basement
which is pretty interesting.
And they also cleaned the roof
which for many years has been really dirty.
So it's nice to see that's clean.
(bright music)
Might as well hop inside real quick.

Thanks for joining me this morning.

And I definitely recommend giving a donation
to the National Mall Foundation.
I'll include a link to that in the description.
They spend all their time and resources investing
in the cherry blossoms and Tidal Basin
and making sure it's all pretty
so we all can enjoy it every year.
And that's all so thanks again for watching, see ya.
