I was coming home after previewing some homes on Capitol Hill, and passed our seat of government just as the sun was setting and there was a big old cloud behind the Captiol dome.

You are so blessed with plenty of eye candy in the Capital. That's a great contrast.

Nice picture.  It's funny, when the weather is like that, sometimes pictures and real life look fake.

That's a beautiful sight no matter what the weather!  And you know it was painted a few years ago with lead-based paint, don't you?  Yeah, THEY can do it, but WE cannot!

Pat - Gee what a cool shot! Almost looks photoshopped but I can see it's probably not. Nice capture. Hope your snow has melted. We still have some of ours up here... Have a great day!
