no bicycles in this shot...


this is a snap on the move
took this picture while on the bike
still moving
just passing the Washington Monument is a helicopter

at the snap of this shutter I was on the Mount Vernon Trail
a "bike path" or a multi-use trail that allows bicycles
it is not uncommon to see interesting airplane activity on this route

there is the standard commercial traffic headed to NATIONAL Airport
then there is of course Marine One shuttling the President here and there
and also all sorts of military stuff swarming about
I snapped a shot of an Osprey from a spot maybe a quarter mile from here
