The US Capitol Christmas Tree - 2023

            I took this on a very still morning right before blue hour. My previous photo posted was taken on the same morning closer to sunrise. I typically try to photograph the Capitol each holiday season and it's a bonus when a very clear reflection is possible. This is probably the clearest one I've caught.
