The Dome

The Dome is the entrance to the annex of the San Diego State University Library. The three Library buildings can be accessed by tunnels from here.
I find it an irresistible subject for the fisheye and I've gotten a wide variety of images of it over the years.
Sadly due to State budget reductions and furloughs, some library service points have reduced hours and some services and new Library acquisitions have been curtailed.
It is a sad and shameful fact that the state of California spends more on prisons than on education.

A stunning capture Walter - I've enjoyed all your fish shots of the library roof, but this has to be one of the very best...a brilliantly done geometric composition with delicate light and colours. I love how you can see the reflections in the glass...V+
