Description The Vanderbilt Mansion

In 1895, Frederick Vanderbilt, grandson of the Commodore, built his country estate overlooking the Hudson river in Hyde Park, New York. With more than 600 acres of landscaped property and a palatial Beaux-Arts mansion, the Hyde Park estate came to symbolize the enormous wealth accumulated by a privileged few during the Gilded Age. Today, the Vanderbilts' Hyde Park home is preserved as Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site.

Very nice clean shot - I think you should migrate to large format. Considering all the architectural pics you're taking you really need to investigate LF - with a wide angle lens on a 4x5 you would have been able to fix the perspective and had a 'money' shot.

You have a very good eye - and winter's a great time to shoot as the long shadows last all day! Also, thx for the history lesson, that's interesting stuff.
