Oak Alley Plantation


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Oak Alley Plantation
Oak Alley Plantation
5/4/10, travel. The famous Oak Alley Plantation on River Road near New Orleans- taken from the levee across the street. Oaks were planted in 1700s and predate the plantation which was built in the 1800s.

You know, I wondered if you would get to this famous plantation during your recent trip to N.O...looking at this, very happy you included it on your schedule! Wonderful wide angle...the people walking down the path really lend a sense of scale to the immensity and the grandeur of the live oak canopy and the trees themselves...beautiful sky to top it off...another gorgeous shot...WTG, Carol!
