Didn't take me long after this challenge was announced to remember this view of our Capitol building that I noticed about a year ago. I really liked how the elements all lined up so well. Interestingly, the last time I saw this scene non of the doors were open, which on one hand added to the symmetry, but the perfectly centered revolving door in this image actually feels like it give the photo another layer.
