| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Hacienda is a Spanish word for an estate, usually, but not always, a vast ranch. Some haciendas were plantations, mines, or even factories. Many haciendas combined these productive activities.
The hacienda system of Argentina, parts of Brazil, Mexico and New Granada was a system of large land-holdings that were an end in themselves as the marks of status, which produced little for export beyond the hacienda itself, which aimed for self-sufficiency in everything but luxuries meant for display, which were destined for the handful of people in the circle of the patrón.

very good POV, we have no choice than following the curve on the road directly into the gate, nice green color too.

Another very beautiful picture. This place looks so neat and well kept. The colors are very nice and the detail excellent. I really like the roadway leading us in. TFS and have a great day!
