Biltmore Estates
Just got back from a quick 8 day vacation to NC and GA. Disappointed in that I didn't have that many photo ops. Actually did not use the tripod once, had a great time though with the wife.
This image is of the Biltmore Mansion Estates in Asheville, NC built by the Vanderbilt's in 1893, Just an incredible site 250 rooms on over 8,000 acres, unfortunately you can not photography the inside and the outside is not an easy capture.

Suggestions, Feedback on comp, processing greatly appreciated

Thanks for looking

Looks a little over sharpened but it may work in your favor. Nice one.

Jack, you beat me to it!

Ray,

Are you using a TSE lens here? It looks like you used too much shift. I had the same problem when I was in Kyiv in winter, but in my defense, it was really cold!
