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! #1265447
