Cool! Seeing old architecture reflected in new architecture. But isn't that always the case? We look at the past but cannot be entirely sure how it looks like so it will be a bit distorted like in the picture. Sorry if I got a bit philosophical on you there. I really liked that picture and with you permission I'd like to download it to comp.
Thanks, Nina! I'm glad you like this distorted view of the Capitol. Sadly, too many of the stately old buildings around the Square have been razrd and replaced with ugly glass and steel monstrosities. Thankfully, several buildings on a block across from the Capitol were recently designated Historical Landmark status and are safe from the wrcking ball for now.
