White House and Washington Monument from the Steps of Jefferson Memorial

You can just make out the White House through the gap in the trees on the far side of the Tidal Pond. The change in color seen on the Washington Monument reflects that it was built in two stages, and the rock quarried for upper half came from deeper in the quarry.
