Sepia scenes ~ stately


This is Connecticut's state Capitol in Hartford. I took this through the passenger window last week as Ralph drove.
Here is the unedited original:

The sun was just starting to set, giving the building a pinkish glow.



To see many more sepia-fied photos visit our hostess, Mary T, at her Sepia Scenes blog. And join in the sepia fun!

A lovely scene just right for sepia.

I expected to see a church designation here. I find it sort of tongue in cheek humorous that so many political buildings have a church like appearance. Maybe there is a message there that politicians are missing.

The sepia effect is very well suited for this photo, looks really nice! :)

The sepia is great on this picture! I think I like it better than the original. Very nice.

Looks better in sepia especially with the tighter crop.

I'm with Annie - expected a church or rather cathedral of some sort.
Very nice in Sepia. The pink sun's glow was a perfect catch.
Have a great week Patti!

this is wonderful in sepia!
and composing the shot thru the trees was perfect, really adds to the drama
