Seeing Double (8th, Extraordinary/Ordinary Challenge)

Washington, D.C.

I was walking by the Old Executive Office Building the other day when I happened to glance at a pair of windows, one curved and one flat, and was struck by the difference in reflection.

The flat reflection is beautiful, but the curved one is fascinating. After looking at hundreds of your photos, I want to tell you that I appreciate how much information you give about the photos. I can learn what each building is; what city it's in and sometimes even more. If I ever get back to Washingon D.C. again (2nd time) I could search out some of the buildings for myself. I was in the Library of Congress, but I must not have looked up at the beautiful ceiling you potographed.
