The U.S. Capitol

It seems I can't walk past the U.S. Capitol without taking a picture of it.  I don't feel bad though, everyone else is doing the same thing.  

I was at the Capitol early the other day and it was freezing out.  This meant  I got to take all the pictures I wanted, with no pesky people in my shots!!!!!

If the Columns above look familiar, that's because they match those in the next three shots from my previous blog detailing the National Columns at the Arboretum.

This and the next view were taken from the second floor of the  Library of Congress.  In the shot above, you can see the U.S. Capitol, the WWII Memorial, the Washington Monument, the National Mall, and the Smithsonian Castle.

Same shot as above, zoomed out.
