Beautiful composition! An amazing house (love the way it and the waterfall work together) and your capture of it sure does it justice. Gorgeous! #1495977

I,too, have been here several times when I lived in Pittsburgh, but I don't think ever in the fall. And I certainly would agree that it's among is most beautiful work - we have been to all of his installations except houses in Calif. This is a gorgeous capture of it - the framing, the soft colors, the water really make it shine! #10401290

Wonderful capture of this iconic home; nice to see it without the steel supports below... I haven't been since that era of restoration. #10415667
