Aerial photographs of the Pacific coast as seen from 7000' above Palos Verdes, combined with the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol, Washington, D.C.

The Rotunda photo was done on July 4th, 1997 with my first digital camera, a Sony Mavica that recorded to floppy disks. It was the right time of day (4pm) and the right sunlight coming through the portico windows. Because the resolution was so low, the image gained a watercolor quality as I brought it up in steps to the density of the surf photos.
