The building of the Parliament, built - as everything else here - by Oscar Niemeyer and Lúcio Costa. Here, the Parliament members sit down to discuss how to raise their own salaries, while corruption is rife in every corridor, every room.

Philadelphia
I was fortunate to travel to the East Coast with 8th graders for 18 years. We started in Boston and ended in Washington DC. I'm working on a book of images from our trips.
Congress Hall, located in Philadelphia at the intersection of Chestnut and 6th Streets, served as the seat of the United States Congress from December 6, 1790 to May 14, 1800.[2][3] During Congress Hall's duration as the capitol of the United States, the country admitted three new states, Vermont, Kentucky, and Tennessee; ratified the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution; and oversaw the Presidential inaugurations of both George Washington (his second) and John Adams.
Sunday morning walk around Austin, TX. I focussed on the street art of the moment and architecture of the downtown area.
People don't want Congress dictating what light fixtures they can use.

OK, so I have a thing for this Ikea light fixture! I laid on the floor to get this shot. Then I remembered that getting back up ain't as easy as it used to be....
I'm glad that I caught the bicyclist. I didn't dare line this up any further by standing in the road.

Pan Am Railways RUPO 345 splits the signals at the west limit of CPF 195 as it crosses Congress Street in Portland, Maine. The building to the right of the train was once the site of Portland’s Union Station until 1961 when it was torn down to build the Union Station Plaza strip mall. The other side of the tracks has been home to the Cumberland County Jail since 1994.

This photo was taken from Independence Square (Mustaqillik Maydoni), the central ceremonial plaza in Tashkent.
Rising above the treetops is the Globe of Uzbekistan, a large golden sphere symbolizing the country's place in the world. It's part of the Monument of Independence and Humanism, unveiled after Uzbekistan gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
In the background, you can spot one of Tashkent's modern landmarks—the Hilton Hotel and Congress Center, with its sleek glass tower and antenna standing in contrast to the globe's symbolism.
Autumn looks so good on you, Yosemite, and wishing you a happy 134th birthday since you were designated by Congress as our third national park on October 1, 1890. Atmospheric conditions and fall color at iconic Valley View made for the perfect conditions for a very memorable sunset.
