“How could it have snuck up on us so suddenly?” I hear you cry. Perhaps time has been skewed by the Large Hadron Collider, or maybe we can blame those annoying flashes. Whatever the reason, the big event is a mere three days away!

Walk, run, bike, Metro, Segway or fly your way over to the third annual DCist Exposed Photography Show, which runs from February 20 to March 7 at the Gallery at Flashpoint, with an opening reception from 5 to 9 p.m. this Friday. Come and ogle the wonderful work of photographers such as ccandumplins, whose perfectly framed image from Gravelly Point makes me want to take a vacation, like now. It also makes me want to check that my DVR is set properly for Wednesday nights.
