p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · California State Capitol


California was one of the more difficult capitols to photograph. Here are nine pictures that I captured there.

1: Governor Jerry Brown's portrait from his first two terms. He wanted the painting to look somewhat incomplete as that's how he viewed his early years as Governor.


2: Mosaic tile floor with the state flower (California Golden Poppy)


3: Staircase with mahogany railings


4: Schwarzenegger's 800 lb bronze grizzly bear sits outside the Governor's Office


5: Inner dome


6: Stained glass state seal


7: House of Representatives Chamber


8: Black walnut woodwork on 700 lb Senate Chamber door


9: Capitol entrance


Thanks for looking...
Glenn

Thanks...and I agree with you entirely. The next capitol building (Carson City, Nevada) was the least impressive of the 21 I've visited in my opinion. I'll probably only end up with four or five keepers. Then, things improved again with Utah!
