This is the interior of the National Building Museum. It is the venue of the annual public TV's Christmas in Washington D.C. program. It will also be one of the many ball sites for the inauguration of President-elect Obama. I am one of the thousands of people who submitted their names to get tickets for the inauguration ball but I doubt whether I'll get in as tickets are in high demand and will likely be reserved for those who are well connected and big-time political donors.

The National Building Museum occupies an area between 4th and 5th Streets in Wash. D.C. The building, if I remember correctly, is the biggest brick buidling in the world. It was built using 7.5 million bricks, and if these bricks were connected linearly, it would stretch from Wash D.C. to Salt Lake City in Utah. The Museum's Corinthian columns are among the largest in the world measuring 75 ft. (23 m) tall and 8 ft. (2.4 m) in diameter.

hi Danilo

You are lucky to bring a camera to a museum, here it is not allowed.

Very impressive columns and the tall structure. The spacious center is very well lit and showing good clarity here. Great shot.
