Here are our favorite new images from the Greater and Lesser Washington Flickr pool, showcasing the best and worst of the Washington region.

We particularly appreciate nevermindtheend and ajfroggie helping stock up some photos on the “lesser” half of the pool. nevermindtheend gave us a great one showing how riders make up for a lack of seating at a bus stop by utilizing a newspaper box in a way other than what its owners intend:
