Description
Third and last shot of the Union Station in Washington D.C. This time an outside view to get a look at the architecture (arches and dome)and the flying flags. Obviously a wide angel shot as you can see the poles are dipping into each other!
Thanks for the view!

The outside is any time as impressive as the interior and even has a hint of the oriental. Ahhh, I am no connoisseur on architecture so let me just conclude by saying I love it and its depth is well captured from this POV.
Very Impressive! Thank you for giving us all the angles!
Its like some exotic royal palace! That's one heck of a shot. Amazing how it looks. Nothing like I would have thought.Fantastic capture.
Looks fantastic. Very nice shot.
great photo
Excellent shot. It is quite an impressive building.
The flying flags? I've heard of flags flapping in the wind, but never flying, unless they're air cargo or painted on the side of an airplane. But I digress. That is a terrific panoramic shot of the stately old station, with its magnificent arches, columns, dome, fountain, statues, etc. All aboard!
oh those American train stations, with their big arches and Romanesque cavern-y feeling, they were conceived as the great meeting grounds of all cultures! They feel so "old" now—since planes took over—but a ways back, they were grand. And you got them, you got their 'feel' and their rock-of-Gibraltar presence, all gray and rocklike like so many of our older institutional buildings. I like the wide angle and the slight curve of the lens; and I like that you got a big swath of green, showing the kind of vast expanse these monsters sit on. (One friend called it "institutional deserts". Well he could've been a little warmer!) Anyway, you got the right Washingtonian color: Bright clear sky, that institutional stone, and of course the flags. I love the comments too. (Flying flags! Hey, there's the buddhist tale: "Which is moving, the flag or the wind?" The answer: "Your mind.") Ok, thanks for this little series, I loved it. You do dialogue with buildings like you do with everything else, with real heart. Nice to walk in your eye & heart for a while...
Wonderful capture!
