And on this day.....

[Marie Hass]

I feel much better, as I was either in the hospital or housebound. So, I hied myself out of the house to meet with a customer about a project, and while I as there, he allowed me to take pictures of his house and grounds. I also took some pictures on the way home.

Please C&C. Thank you.

Good set Marie, you certainly took advantage of the colours.

My favourite here is No 2, there's something about the framing of it that works well.

Very nice set of images in an interesting place....a target rich location.

[Marie Hass]

Thank you Chuck.

Thank you, Grahame. The last 3 shots were taken on my way home.

Very interesting indeed, I could easily lose myself for some time in those surrounds.
The 2nd & 9th I find are my pick for storytelling value, but then the gorgeous winding road though the autumn landscape is lovely.
The only thing I would maybe do is crop it & get rid of all the sky.
I hope you continue on the road to better health Rie

Lovely shots Marie, all interesting in their own way. #2, #9 and #10 are my pick too. Looks like a nice place.

Nice series, first image needs a bit more of the décor, the cropped furniture acts as a distraction for me. The window capture was done very well. Similar thoughts on the second image.

Awww...Marie...this house has a beautiful interior. You just gave me an inspiration on how to do my fireplace just in time for Thanksgiving! The winding road with fall leaves is a favourite too...I can hardly choose which ones I like so I will just say I like them all...John had already said it -- the window shot in #1 is excellent too.

Hi Marie, I'm glad that you are feeling better Nice photos of a nice house, my best is #9. I also like your shots on your way home, especially #10 and #11, lovely colors.

[chauncey]

Marie...the pictures are of the quality that we have come to expect from you, very nice indeed.

[FrankMi]

Glad to hear that you are feeling better. Fascinating architectural details! Every image has something of interest. Any idea what kind of a plant is in #7 Marie??

[Marie Hass]

Dear Kay, thank you.

Being this ill has been a life changing experience.

I took several pictures of this road with different framing and I personally did not care for the cropped trees. However, here is one I did take without the sky. What do you think?

Thank you, Dave. Their home is just beautiful with the stained glass and classic old european style of antiques.

Hello Marie: This is a lovely old home and you have managed to capture the character so well. The decorated fireplace is just beautiful and the library window is awesome.

[Marie Hass]

John, you would have laughed at me as I took about 20 shots at different settings, just to get the first image. Either I got the interior right and the stained glass window was blown, or I got the window right and the interior way to dark. A wider angle lens would have been nice. i was working with my 24 - 105 and it was just not wide enough.

Dear Izzie, thank you. This house is magnificent and impeccibly furnished. The current owners spare no expense to showcase its features.

The road i show is a public road. It is the way we get across the ridgeline to the house.

Thanks, Binnur. We really like where we live. We are only 7 minutes from the town below, but remote enough that we have some privacy.

Dear Chauncey, thank you for the comment. This year, for sure, has been a learning year.
