Tysons Corner Center

Last month, I photographed the 2018 First Responders Day held on the Plaza at Tysons Corner Center. This is a particularly favorite event for me to cover both a number of reasons. At first, the vehicles that they display are authentic and on the cutting edge of technology. Also, talking with the service people is inspiring from their passion for their work, and the goal of making our community more peaceful and safe. While walking through I am educated on the technologies that they employ while on the job. Of course the helicopter is a big attraction with the impact a flying vehicle makes overhead. However, fire trucks, bomb-handling robots, and police cruisers will always attract questions. On this occasion, I connected with the Vienna Police Department. Hearing about the events that they plan throughout the year, I may be covering those for them since photos are an important part of their community outreach. Hopefully more of those will be on the blog soon!
