Photographer Comments: It was absolutely frigid when I snapped this photo. I like it, not only because of its historical merit and the pomp and circumstance surrounding the gaiety of the scene, but also because you can see the Department of the Treasury and the General Sherman equestrian sculpture in the background. It brings back those very cold winters in Washington; the bare trees, the long overcoats, and the the faintly colored blue skies.
