Sun rises over the U. S. Capitol dome in Washington
The sun rises over the U.S. Capitol dome in Washington, October 18, 2013. U.S. lawmakers launched an effort to resolve budget differences in a less confrontational fashion on Thursday as Washington picked up the pieces from a political crisis and 16-day government shutdown that has slowed the economy and undermined the countrys international standing.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the majestic U. S. Capitol dome stands tall and proud as the sun gracefully rises over Washington. Taken on October 18,2013, this image symbolizes a new beginning for U. S. lawmakers after a tumultuous political crisis and government shutdown that had adverse effects on both the economy and international reputation of the country. The serene blue sky serves as a backdrop to highlight the Capitol's historic significance and its role as an iconic landmark in American politics. The creative use of lighting captures the beauty in nature during sunrise, casting a warm glow upon the building's silhouette. As darkness gives way to morning light, Jonathan Ernst skillfully portrays an atmosphere of hope and optimism for what lies ahead. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on the grandeur of this architectural masterpiece against nature's picturesque canvas. This photograph evokes a sense of tranquility amidst urban city life—a reminder that even in times of uncertainty, there is still beauty to be found in our surroundings. It serves as a visual testament to resilience and determination while emphasizing the importance of preserving our environment and historic sites. Jonathan Ernst's lens has captured not just another sunrise but also encapsulated an entire narrative within one frame—an invitation for contemplation about our nation's past, present, and future under that magnificent dome atop Capitol Hill.
