I like #5 and #14 the best...#14 will make a nice B&W conversion.

Good morning, Chris! I agree. That one especially. I tried out B&W conversions on all of these and liked them all.  _MG_9794mb&w by mariehass, on Flickr 'Rie |

Great series 'Rie
I am quite jealous. DC is definitely on my "to do" list. We are torn between there and LA for next years summer holiday.
I like them all but the stand out ones for me are-
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11, 13 and 16.

went for an older, grittier look in my conversion..this is where it gets fun wondering what other people like...or in this case want to try.  |

Come to DC! Marie and I will be tour guides. Be careful, you may regret that when the whole tribe turns up, Mr Webb, the current Mrs Webb and the two Weblets can be a bit much ;D |

Cool, either way there could be an Anglo-American meetup on the cards. Still kicking myself that we didn't meet up last summer Chris when we were staying in Mickey's back yard.

I survived my two boys... soccer, baseball, Black Belts, Eagle Scouts... and ... home school. I am mom. I win.  |

Just home from work. Have been pixel peeping all day, but have a hard time formatting a response from my Droid.
Mary, I think you will have to be DC tour guide. I went with my sister, who drove as she has routes in DC and knows it very well. She asked me where I wanted to go, and then took me there. Our stops in this order were the Porta-John, the Jefferson Memorial, the Porta-John, the Korean War (Conflict) Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the Porta-John, the National Holocaust Museum, the bathroom, Georgetown, lunch at the Irish Pub, the bathroom, and lastly the old Glen Echo Amusement Park (now a national historic site) and a rest stop trip to the bathroom, then home. ;D ;D ;D

I quite enjoyed my tour of DC through your eyes, Marie, and especially like #5 and the ones of the Arcade. I am also drawn to #9 because of all the interesting lines and texture. I'm wondering whether different processing and/or cropping might make it stand out more, but have nothing to suggest.
