September 2

Fort C.F. Smith, Arlington, Virginia

Another hot day. I went out this morning to a nearby park/historic site to try to get some shots before the temps reached 90 degrees. I was pleased to find a meadow area full of butterflies, but most of them were too quick for me to capture. I was also happy to find some shaded benches!
