Once again the Capitol and Lincoln can be seen in a different light—sunlight. Every year during the longest days of summer the front face of the Capitol and the relief sculpture featured are bathed in sunlight. Photographers and Capitol fans should take advantage of the early morning and later afternoon light to view the Capitol in a different way.
. This Sower is also bathed in sunlight as he faces to the north and west sowing seeds of noble life across Nebraska. .
