Rotunda Dome, Minnesota State Capitol

I was up in St. Paul this week on a business trip. The venue for the conference I was speaking at was only 1 miles from the Minnesota State Capitol so I dragged the DSLR and tripod along with me and was fortunate enough to have an hour in the building shooting pictures. It's a very impressive building and extremely different from the Texas Capitol. This is a shot looking up at the roof of the dome. I couldn't centre this properly since the central point is roped off so this isn't quite as symmetrical as I would have liked.

This was taken with the D700 and 14-24mm lens and is an HDR comprising 8 shots spaced by 1 stop each.

I would greatly appreciate your vote in the 2010 Photoblog Awards. Thanks!
