[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This cottage was built about 1860 and is one of the oldest buildings in Canberra. Indeed it pre-dates Canberra by at least 50 years. The sheep paddocks that originally surrounded the building have over the year been filled with the suburbs and lakes of Canberra. It was originally part of a large property in the area and was home for farm workers and occupied continuously until 1958 when it was purchased by the government and preserved as a historic building. Hence it satisfies the requirements of the current scavenger hunt.

it seems as strong as the time it was first built. you have seen the effect of lighting on the walls very well and have shot it beautifully. i don't know why but there is something in this shot about trust..
congratulations..

Beautifully nostalgic. The composition and the light - both are excellent. Very well preserved.
