September 29th, 2009

So I am deep into Dan Brown's latest thriller, The Lost Symbol, and it's making me want to visit Washington DC and photograph all the location his protagonist, Robert Langdon is visiting. Part of the appeal of Brown's fiction is his extraordinary attention to detail of his settings. Angels and Demons, Da Vinci Code and now The Lost Symbol are all great books disguised as travel logs . . . great stuff.

Here we have a statue of Brutus as he contemplates the dagger in his hand (unseen in the photo). Shakespeare has always inspired me and I thought this a suitable subject!

Captured with the Nikon 50mm prime at f/1.8 at 250th of a second with an ISO of 100.
