Rotunda of the United States Capitol Building


The photo is a high quality jpeg meeting minimum size requirements. It shows the detail of Brumidi's frescos as well as details of the interior of the Capitol dome. Includes one example of the National Statuary Hall Collection.

 * Comments:
 * The silhouetted statue makes for an interesting aesthetic, but harms its encyclopedic value IMO, as it doesn't give a clear view of the statue, but also obstructs the view of the rotunda. I also don't think it's a high quality JPEG -- it seems to have some noise, or possibly has undergone noise reduction; either way some of the smooth surfaces do not look perfectly smooth. And, the windows are overexposed with too much ambient light coming in.  I don't think it's a FP, but a good shot and tough place to shoot, I'm sure.  Fletcher (talk) 19:39, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
