Photographer Comments: I really like this picture of the Georgetown tower and boathouse framed by the large arch at the base of the Key Bridge. I remember that it took me a long time to fiddle with my the head of my tripod to position the camera vertically exactly the way I wanted it. It was also really hot and humid that day, I was sweating profusely and I remember becoming agitated with myself because of my perceived need to frame it perfectly.
