1st Place
Spiral
by Helen Betts

Washington, D.C.

The incredibly ornate National Statuary Hall in the US Capitol. The House of Representatives met here for 50 years, but the shape of the ceiling caused everything to echo, making it hard to conduct business, so they moved out. Now it houses statues of prominent people from all the States.

Sony DSC-H5
1/100s f/2.8 at 6.0mm iso80 full exif
