Read MoreAfter being postponed from September due to bad weather, the 9th Annual Celebrate Petworth Festival was a pretty resounding success on November 18th on the 800 block of Upshur Street. Here’s a bunch of photos I took while running the Main Stage, the Dog Show and walking around.
Read MorePetworth is more than porches, it's an amazing diversity of background, skills, age and talent. One of the people who help shape the cultural fabric of Petworth is Bill Crandall. Bill has lived in Petworth for over a decade, and has long thought of ways to help encourage the creativity in our neighborhood.

Read MoreLocal photographer Bill Crandall has a well-deserved reputation as a talented and prominent DC photographer. He was published today on the National Geographic PROOF website, in an article and picture story called "Forget Capitol Hill, These Images Show the Real D.C." by NatGeo Assistant Photo Editor Becky Harlan.
Featuring Crandall's photography from around our local area (Shaw, Bloomingdale, Petworth), the pictures offer a snapshot of DC life away from the big dome downtown.
More often than not, Washington, D.C., is associated with power and politics, with a dash of fireworks and monuments thrown in for good measure. That stereotype of the capital is exactly what photographer Bill Crandall avoids in his mysterious compositions of the District’s neighborhoods. His camera isn’t in the press pool but is turned on the “real city where people live.”
Check out the full article and gallery on the National Geographic PROOF website.
And congrats to Bill Crandall for being published on National Geographic!
