I can't believe that we are almost through the first month of 2018. There's been so many great things happening in DC. Street Meet DC held their first meet of the year on U street. The turn out was amazing with over one hundred individuals coming out to support the movement. I personally enjoy the meets because it gives me an opportunity to hone in on my photography skills as well as learn from my fellow photographers from the DMV area.

The U Street neighborhood can be described as vibrant, eclectic, and exciting. It is rich in history, diversity, and music-filled. There are so many historical landmarks that surround U street, a few being the Howard Theater, Howard University, 14th St Corridor, and the SHAW neighborhood. You can access the heart of U Street through the green kine on the metro. Let me tell you that there is no shortage of food and music options over there. U street has you covered whether you want Italian or soul food, and you can't forget Ben's Chili Bowl. You'll find a few international eateries as well! 

It's ok if you missed this meet up because there will be many more this year! Here are some shots that I captured from the meet up.
