One Big Hall

A look inside Washington D.C.'s National Building Museum. This building was once houses clerks who processed veteran's pension payments (for Pre-World War I vets). I took this on a trip to D.C. a few summers back but thoght I'd share it here. I love the size and scale of the colums. :)

These columns are certainly more grand than the ones in Union Station (Toronto) that I posted yesterday!

I happen to work right behind this building in DC. Nicely framed shot. Hopefully one of this days, I will have the guts to process the Museum shots I have stored away smile
