Congressional Christmas Tree

We usually take a picture at night of the Congressional Christmas Tree, but we happened to be in the area this afternoon, and I couldn’t resist the great light and clear blue sky. The tree this year is dedicated to New Mexico, and all the ornaments were made by children in that state.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Commemoration of a Turkish soldier’s compassion and bravery, posted earlier:
