I have literally stepped off the plane and should be sleeping but I wanted to look at the night shots that I managed to capture in Washington DC and here a detail of the Lincoln Memorial. Directly behind the Lincoln statue you can read the words of Royal Cortissoz carved into the wall: "IN THIS TEMPLE AS IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE FOR WHOM HE SAVED THE UNION THE MEMORY OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN IS ENSHRINED FOREVER."
In front of the sitting Lincoln is the stone where Martin Luther King delivered his speech in 1963, "I have a dream"
Maybe today more relevant than ever.............................
