EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by James Lawler Duggan, the iconic U. S. Capitol dome is beautifully reflected in the glass skylight of the Capitol Visitor Center on midterm Election Day, November 6,2018. The image showcases a stunning juxtaposition between old and new architectural elements as well as symbolizes the essence of democracy in action. The U. S. Capitol dome stands tall and proud, representing the heart of American governance and power. Its gleaming white structure contrasts against the modernity of the glass skylight, which serves as a gateway for visitors to explore one of America's most significant landmarks. The reflection creates an ethereal effect that adds depth and dimension to this already impressive scene. It seems almost poetic how these two distinct structures merge into one harmonious composition - a metaphorical reminder that progress can coexist with tradition. This photograph was taken during midterm Election Day, adding another layer of significance to its narrative. As voters exercise their democratic rights within those hallowed halls, their voices echo through history while shaping its future. Duggan's skillful capture invites us to contemplate not only the physical beauty but also the symbolic weight carried by this revered location. It reminds us that amidst political debates and divisions, there is still something undeniably awe-inspiring about our nation's capital – a place where ideas clash but ultimately come together for progress.
