Kansas’s capitol, in Topeka, was the twenty first capitol I photographed, and the resulting set is one of my two or three favorites. The Kansas Capitol sits in downtown Topeka, which (at least as far as I saw) didn’t have much else to recommend it, but the building itself is stunning, set atop a low hill in the middle of spacious grounds, as with many midwestern capitols. I lucked out with a perfect setting sun, and was able to frame it with the building itself several times, to good effect. The Kansas Capitol has one of my favorite interiors from a photographic standpoint as well. These photos were all taken in July of 2014.
