I was walking near Dupont Circle among the various embassies, when I came upon this scene. Half of the building appeared to be in pretty good shape while the other half languished in very poor repair. I guess that can happen when the embassy of a smallish country is housed in a somewhat large building. The wooden members near the roof line appear to be rotting out. Nevertheless, it is a wonderful structure that I hope gets the attention it deserves. It has been enjoyable walking around with the Fuji X30 shooting in the monochrome film simulation mode. The tonalities are handled very nicely and there is basically no post production required. In a pinch, the jpeg files have more latitude than I would have thought.
