"Everyone knows Washington is photogenic but no one knows this better than Jake McGuire. It is McGuire’s sensitivity to his subject that is central....though these monumental landscapes and structures are the same ones we have seen in thousands of other pictures all our lives, they have a different, more personal quality in being grazed by McGuire’s lens and the heightened, sometimes curious, lighting he knows precisely when and how to select for...to us Jake and the District seem inseparable.”

Jake caught this kid climbing on Lincoln at dawn when there was no Park Ranger in sight. If you get caught, the US Park Police give you a citation for, "Mounting a National Memorial."

Remember DC's snowmegeddon, a couple of years ago? McGuire took this photo at a car dealership in Arlington, VA when there was about 25 inches on snow on the ground. A few weeks later he showed the photo to his Aunt Rita, an art professor and asked her if she thought they were new cars or used cars.

McGuire's wise and ever perceptive Aunt Rita quickly replied, "they are used cars."

McGuire asked her how she knew.

"They are used cars," she said, "because they have different shaps."

These Saints have been praying for 700 years. It looks like it's working; they don't look a day older than they did in 1322.
