Nice one Matt. I hadn’t seen you as much for awhile there. Maybe it was just a coincidence of timing or my selection bias, but has everything been alright; going well?
@j4k3@lemmy.world Yeah, all good!
This was captured with the Rodenstock 90mm/5.6 HR-Digaron lens (@ f/6.3) and about 10mm of vertical shift to maintain geometry.
Four years ago, a group of insurrectionist losers sacked this building in an attempt to overthrow the US Government and prevent the transfer of power to a newly elected president. They got frighteningly close to succeeding.
This photo was made about six months later; some of the physical damage from the attack remains visible here.
I post this mostly as a reminder that it wasn’t that long ago that the rule of law and the constitution prevailed. I hope it will again soon.
