It's not often that you find a major tourist destination in Washington, DC barren and empty of visitors. But such was my luck a few days ago when my family and I visited the Supreme Court - a building which had been, up until recently, covered by some sort of construction drapery. The more I look at this photo, the more I marvel at it as I very well could have taken it as a color photo and gotten nearly the same result. Also, my family and I sitting on the steps look so small. It cannot be overstated how large buildings are in Washington, DC., and while from the sidewalk this building doesn't appear to be unusually big, the long run from my camera to the seated position on the steps was just far enough to match the length of the timer on my camera.
Taken with a Canon Rebel XS with the stock lens and the 10 second timer, I don't think I'll ever get tired of looking at this one.
