Shot on 8mm film in 1975, this vintage home movie captures the Jefferson Memorial at dusk, bathed in an intense blue filter that gives the scene a surreal, dreamlike quality. The camera pans across the Tidal Basin, revealing the memorial's iconic dome and surrounding trees against a deep indigo sky. In the final frame, a few people stroll along a path near the monument, with a classic car visible in the background, offering a glimpse of everyday life in Washington DC during the mid-1970s. The footage exhibits natural film grain and slight instability, characteristic of Super 8 home movies from the era.
