Our hotel at National Harbor, Maryland provided close proximity to downtown Washington D.C. just 10 miles north and lovely views of the Potomac River. Walking along the marina one evening, I captured this shot. Wouldn’t you like to enjoy a cocktail while cruising along the river in one of those boats at sunset on the Potomac?

Wow. That is gorgeous! I love the way the light hits the side of the boats.
What a great photo Cathy. Enjoy your long weekend.
Oh yes I would. Only been to DC once, but utterly fell in love with it…..and I didn’t even see a sunset, so add this to my experience & I’d move there in a heartbeat! Gorgeous!
Gorgeous photo! Even enjoying a cocktail with that view would be perfect.
That is such a beautiful view! The best part is the orange reflections by the boats.
Beautiful shot! Like you say, seems like a great place to sit on a boat and enjoy a drink!
Lovely photo, Cathy, the reflection is beautiful!
I been to DC once before, but never got the see the water view….
I love how the sun’s golden color is reflected on the water
A cocktail here? Sign me up!
I have a friend living on a boat in Maryland – I need to go visit here so I can enjoy sunsets like this!
Caught at just the right moment. A glass of wine on one of those boats would go down a treat!
What a beautiful shot! So peaceful!
I love sunsets! Very nice – makes me want to sail away on one of those boats…
Stunning photo. Wish I’d taken it 🙂
Thanks, all for your very kind comments. Nice to know I’m not the only one who thought it was a pretty good shot!
This is a fabulous shot, Cathy!
I can taste that glass of wine.
Cathy, I’m heading to D.C in a couple days, I’m looking forward to this view. I hope I will have time to experience some of the memorials that I haven’t seen.

I once went to a conference at National Harbor and got to spend at evening on the river. The sunsets there are quite nice and I do like the one in your photo. 🙂
