That last picture definitely does not show the Masonic Temple PoindexterOglethorpe Aug 2018 #2
If you click on it, it does. You have to click twice to bring up the entire image. mahatmakanejeeves Aug 2018 #3

The photographer was located south-southwest of the Masonic Temple, at about the Telegraph Road interchange with the Beltway. He had his camera pointed in the direction of Nationals Park, say. The sky depicted is over Crystal City and your old turf, National Airport, both north of Four Mile Run. Thus, over Arlington.

It would never have occurred to me to click twice to get the entire image.

It's a much better photo in its entirety.
