You wouldn't think this picture was taken smack-dab in the middle of one of the largest population centers in Virginia. You also wouldn't think that it was taken from about two miles away... but it was. This was actually across Richmond, taken from the 15th floor or so of the downtown Marriott, with a 250mm(ish) zoom lens. It was early in the morning on an overcast day, and the clouds and haze from the long distance created the dreamy countryside affect. I had no idea what kind of picture I was going to take, I just mounted the telephoto lens and started looking around at what was outside the window. Note to self: Keep eyes open more often!
