I love this place, Vanderbilt mansion. Wonderful choice for B&W, so many interesting design shapes , etc. I did almost same exact photos in color. Well done! #11504606Mitch Spence August 11, 2016
That little touch of the outdoors is a fine element here, Chris. It somehow sets the eye free and then brings it right back to the details of the architecture.Chris Budny August 11, 2016
