An unusual perspective, nicely done. I like the tiny figure at the base. It adds interest.

taken with the  12-24:

I like this image, like the way you got the monument and the capitol and flags in. Like the way it leans. Like the way your SO spread eagle on the
monument. It's funny and/or seems to say something  significant.

But, I feel, it needs post processing for you to punch it up, because it did that digital thing of turning the sky too dark, too blue. The whole
thing needs to be much lighter, to show up better.

I bumped up the fill light and highlights in LR and bumped up the blacks
as well. (Probably  needs more sharpening than I gave it too.)

First was too gray and  dark.

I also tried some very dramatic B&W variations (not showing here). So you
could go that  route too.

Just needs some work. (I might clone out part of the person on the right
too).
