Thanks, folks! The view was available on our Behind The Scenes tour - before the earthquake. Now, the particular walkway I stood on to capture this, is closed. Hopefully, it will be re-opened as repairs continue over the years ahead.
Linda; it was great to meet you (and Renee) and get to spend 2 days shooting together in DC! I'm glad you had a great time, and I loved showing you two around my favorite spots. And I always love seeing the cathedral through other photographers' eyes... So I don't mind at all what you posted! #10226207
