The Capitol Speed Limit, Haidra

Much of The Capitol temple has been reduced to rubble, and only one single column remains recognizable. As if that is not bad enough, it has been completely split in half by a major road that runs through the middle of it. To top it off, a bright, brand new "speed limit" sign has been put up next to the temple column. The total mismatch of these two "pillars" and the total lack of reverence for this once sacred place are the reasons I made this picture. It's sadly amusing!
