Being at the footsteps of one of the most powerful buildings in the world, supposedly taking photos of flowers, the Capital building kept calling my name to be photographed. Trying hard not to gravitate to my desire to photograph landscapes, I made a concerted effort to try to think small. But the gleaming white marble kept catching my eye.
So many opportunities arose to capture this majestic building in all of its glory. So I couldn’t help myself to sneak a few landscape shots with the Capital Building.
This weekend’s workshop is under the expert coaching of Allen Rokach, current Director of Photography at the New York Botanical Gardens. When reading about his professional achievements and seeing his stunning photography only makes me dream that I could be even half the photographer that Allen is. He is a wonderfully patient, supportive and photographic expert that provides a wonderful learning environment for aspiring photographers. In visiting his portfolio here, you can see how he has become a world renowned photographer.
Well, I’m off for day two of the workshop so wish you a Happy Sunday ! Bella Remy

Now that’s architecture. Don’t seem they build things like this in the New Age time we are in :).
That is so true. These are special buildings which are works of art.
Well I think you came up with not only excellent images of the Capital, you also display a fascinating and unique perspective! Very well done!
Thank you so much Phil. I was a little off subject but couldn’t help it. 🙂
Stunning photos, Bella. It’s certainly a beautiful building.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful perspectives!! I can’t wait to hear more of your workshops… SO great!
You’re too kind. Thank you!
These pictures are goregous! Now how is it that none of my pictures of the Capitol building have a single plant in them??? 😦
LOL ! Because the building STUNNED you and kept asking you to take its picture.
Beautiful shots and a beautiful building which still after all these years is so beautiful… 🙂
I think they may have cleaned it in the past few years as they are doing tons of rehab work along the mall. All of the reflecting pools have been redone as well.
