WHIM - WHatever Image Mélange

Tyson's Corner Street and Architecture

Definition

A gallery for members to share their individual field trips to Tyson's Corner.  Tyson's is a great suburban location for photographing architecture and people on the street.  The distances between venues are fairly large but one can take advantage of COVID by parking almost anywhere on deserted streets and parking lots.
