Wow! It does look like a giant eye Chris. Terrific capture. Is this where the eye at the top of the pyramid on the dollar came from :-)? #10274163

Description

A wide-angle view of the US Capitol dome from the Rotunda. The dome is made from about 9 million pounds of cast iron, with an interior
height of 180 feet. I liked how the circles become ellipses from an off-center viewing angle; it suggests a giant eye to me.
3-bracket handheld HDR.
