Nicely done...you came up with a solution to the slight blurring that takes place even before you reach the tip of the Capitol. Great work...now I need to find some new images to work from. Some other thoughts, if you want to avoid the problem illustrated above, the focal area should be in a rather uniform area of the image with no tall buildings. That can be a little boring though. Secondly, if the scene has too much detail, it is hard to make a convincing fake model. See my two attempts. I will probably crop in on these to give it a bit more of a "model" look.
