Illinois State Capitol

[JunixRose]

I think the final edite works very nicely. Though I would want just a touch more on top, it seems to be slightly cropped on the statue/pole/whatever. The effect makes it look like a nasty storm is brewing. You should travel the fifty states and make a series out of this. I can see it being sold as a coffee table book with little factoids on each capital.
