This is the ceiling of the entrance hall at the Smithsonian’s Asian History Museum.  I thought all the recesses and the chandelier made this interesting.  It took me a minute to get under the center of the light and the whole time the guard was looking at me like it was my time to go.  You know what I mean?  Too bad I speak English…I could have smoothed my way out.  Yeah right.  So, after taking this, I realized there was a drop of water on the lens.  I think it just completed the day.

Don’t forget to click on the photo, it opens flickr and the higher resolution file.
