Nid de canard/ Duck's nest, a photo from Florida, South

Photographer's Note

Duck's Nest, la plus vieille maison de Palm Beach érigée en 1891.
Certains mocreaux furent assemblés à New York pour être transportés par barge puisque c'était le seul transport disponible à l'époque!

Duck's Nest, the oldest standing house in Palm Beach (1891).
Parts of the house were assenbled in New York and brought by barge to Palm Beach, as this was the only means of transportation!

Bonjour Robert,

Ma femme qui regarde la photo par dessus mon épaule lui trouve quelque chose de bizarre au niveau du cadrage. Je suis un petit peu d'accord avec elle, même si parfois j'aime que les règles soient brisées. Cela doit être mon petit côté carré rouge.

Amicalement

Serge

Impressive mansion and well preserved since late 19th century, Robert.
Fine clear view with good light enhanced the outlines of the house.
Lovely yellow flowers.
Ike

Bonsoir Robert,

Les arbres et les fleurs cadrent bien la maison. La prise de vue permet de distinguer les détails et les couleurs de l'acrhitecture de la maison. La bonne luminosité donne de belles teintes aux couleurs de l'image. Bonne soirée.
