Piece description from the artist
From several points in DC one can view the US Capitol from a distance. Due to a complicated road layout, the US Capitol is both one of the most hidden, yet visible buildings in the US Capitol. It all depends on where you are standing. This image was taken from just down the road and captures several light trails as cars passed by me during the long exposure. I think this image really captures the transient nature of the DC population… every election cycle mass portions of DC flow in and out of the city as new congressional staffers and lobbyist ready for their own ride on the DC "whirl wind." Original is matted white with black wooden frame.

Gene's passion for photography came during the film years, and as photography became more technical, Gene's background in IT made the transition a natural fit. He's is known for balking at the digital editing critics, saying "If a digital artist uses the computer to do all the work, then Ansel Adams used chemistry to do all his work. At the end of what ever process an artist uses, only an artist knows when to stop, step back and say…now thats what I wanted to convey" .
