On a bored night outside Washington DC I decided to go for a drive. I hit 95 North and ended up in Philly, found a parking spot 1 block over from Independence Hall and strolled over to see it. I took a few shots freehand of it and the Libery Bell through the window of its exhibit. Got my shots, walked back the car and drove home. With traffic I think the trip took around 6 hours but I wasn't bored anymore.

must say you're very keen & you're fortunate the sky knew you were coming and put on such a great show . its such a powerful image and i love the way the building stands out against the sky .. :)
I really like what you've done with the building and the composition. I'm not so fond of the sky, the colors seem a bit unnatural. Just my opinion, of course. Clever title.
A solid image that falls just short of being crisp, sharp, but it is properly framed and composed - a technical success with a couple of minor issues. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail, but the rather odd turn of sky color isn't as effective as it could be. In general a good effort.
