Polo on the Mall

August 14, 2014 - When you hear the word polo, you probably don't think of it being played on the National Mall, but it happened. On a multi-use field just behind the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, a crowd gathered to watch a polo match.

I had some time to kill before going to play volleyball in the area, so I brought along my DSLR camera to take a few pictures of the polo match. With the match being on a field surrounded by cars and a fence, I wanted to experiment with my photo editing to minimize them. Yet it was cool to see the Washington Monument in the background of this polo match. Here are some of my favorite shots from the match.
