Description
This photo shows the Colonnade of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial from the inside. Taking this picture, I tried to emphasize two important features of this memorial: the warm colors of the colonnade and the use of Ionic columns by the architect (see the description of this gallery for more details). With the help of a wide-angle lens and the shadows of the columns, I could emphasize the shape of the rotunda and the lighter character of the open colonnade, which is a peculiar feature of the Jefferson Memorial, compared to the ancient Roman Pantheon, to which this monument is inspired.
