Well, I hope you like grand architecture and seeing how gazzillionaires lived in the early 1900's, cuz you're about to see a whole new series from Vizcaya. All photos were taken with the D800 and Tamron 24-70/2.8

Who let you into my house? Wait ... I'm not old enough. :)

I'm confused though. If it's a "typical American house", how does it relate to gazzillionaires?

Lovely shots Ted! I've been in a local mansion that has amazing architecture, etc in it (not to the extent of this one LOL), and I wonder how did they get this stuff here? did the workers have to live on the property while the mansion was being built? etc. Crazy for back then.

However, you would think that they could afford to have statues that weren't broken (tic)!

Every stone and timber was brought from Italy. Amazing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_Vizcaya

It is amazing. The time, the dedication, the beauty, and ............................the money involved.


I didn't really work that hard and it didn't cost me any money. But thanks for noting my dedication.
