 Dome of the Denver state capitol. The angle is a bit slanted but couldn't get it to be fully centered. Lighting was on the dark side so had to up the ISO.

The symmetry of the dome seems a little skewed...you couldn't get a straight up shot of the rotunda?

good effort at a hard shot. I have tried to take similar shots, the reason it is hard is that the eye is very good at picking up on the fact it is not symmetrical. You need to be right under the centre (which you normally cannot do as some goose has put something there) for the shot to have any chance to work.

I have one of these shots too, and it's not bad... but I think that (like mine) you needed to be right under the middle.
