Photo of the Day: June 7, 2007

This may look like the grounds of a European palace, but it's actually Meridian Hill Park (aka Malcolm X Park) in Northwest. The park was so named because it once straddled was next to the Washington meridian, the American version of the Greenwich meridian.

We liked the sharpness and vivid colors of the grass and gravel in the shot by allyzay — it feels like a nice, cool day. And if you view the large size, it looks like a blue person is peering over the railing on the right, though it's really just a sculpture. EXIF.
