Wyeth says: "This face is almost totally context-dependent, as individual letters become unrecognizable on their own".

Jefferson Memorial on Xmas Eve, 3am


Photo by Melody.

For a long time, I've wanted to visit the Jefferson Memorial late at night when no one is around. Driving home on Xmas Eve at 3am seemed like an ideal time. No one was around, except for a security guard who appeared out of nowhere and started writing me a ticket. That meant I had to abandon the plan for some reflective time in the memorial and sprint back to the car.
