Leafless Tree Reflection Mural

The location was 2 blocks from the White House in
Washington DC.
The "Take it!" came as I was stopped at an
intersection and waiting for the light to change, happened to look at this splendid reflection in the glass front of a building still under construction. I quickly grabbed my
camera and took this photo through the windshield of my car. Just as soon as I got the shot, the light changed and moving on, was the order of the moment.
I have since been by this building several times
and the mural is there. I am looking forward to seeing the picture change as the foliage arrives on the trees bringing both covering of the dark branches as well as the vivid green of
the leaves.
This is part of the life of this now very vibrant
city. Buildings such as this one used to be a building of just a bit smaller size on the same footprint. The old building was completely torn down and a new on put up in
its place. It seems the economics of getting just a little more space to use along with all of the new technology available to make it run more efficiently make it all
worthwhile.
The hunt for unexpected murals goes
on.
Best wishes to those of you who share my journey
through photography.

Mid April and the trees are still bare, winter must be lingering.

That's cool you grabbed it in the car, I can never do that. I'm too slow.
