[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I came across this abandoned building in my wanderings through a large botanical garden. The 40-year old garden and nursery was open for public viewing by the new owners. We followed many meandering paths through aging and naturalized plantings, passing ponds covered with water lilies, hearing our footsteps echo over small wooden bridges, and ducking under heavy trailing vines or branches. The new owners had lots of work ahead of them to update these gardens, yet the current natural state had a delightfully rugged appeal. Tucked in a far corner of these acres was this empty building, with vines and bushes starting to claim it as their own. I wonder what the owners have in mind for this interesting gem:)

Very moody and well captured, the old house is realy overgrown by the vegetation.

Hi Karen,
You have captured this well, the colour, sharpness and lighting are great, the building looks really interesting and makes you want to take a look inside.

HI Karen,
a wonderful contribution to the Hunt.
I like this motive, very good shot, thanks.
I also think about what to show for this theme, a difficult hunt this time.
Bye and greetings

An interesting gem indeed.
I love the way you framed it.
The techniques in photographing it were well acheived as well.

Hi Karen
You found the wonderful old left house. Rated topic. I am waiting for the more further realization of objectives.

Hi Karen! I really do like the composition, although I think that it is still slightly over-exposed along the right side. Sunshine is tricky. But again, this is a pleasant, and I do admire it :) The presentation is great!
