Photographer's Note
Walking at the morning I noticed the gardeners working , it was a quiet and lovely Summer day, plenty of bird's singing
------------
This is the "club house" of a country club, Martindale, situated 50 km from Buenos Aires
It was built in an English stile, some 60 years by the owner of a "cabaña" (where horses and caws are breed and sold) surrounded by 100 hectare's
Some 25 years ago, when security problems began in Argentina, he realized that he was no longer sure living there, so he created a society, divide and sold the parcels
They left enough space for polo , tennis, stables, horse training, football, etc

Hola Maria,
The setting and nature in this photo are very pretty. It is interesting to see a British-style home in Argentina. I like all of the greenery, and the shadows on the grass made by the tree branches. All of the different details come together very nicely.

Allô Maria!
Excellente prise de vue en diagonale et merveilleux édifice bien entouré par une belle végétation. Le jardinier en prend sûrement bien soin. Les branches dans le coin supérieur gauche balance la photo et les couleurs sont superbes.
Tous mes compliments,
Emilius

Hi Maria,
The trees, the bushes and the flowers are framing well the house. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the architecture of the club house. The morning light is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Bonjour, chère Maria,
C'est vrai que l'on retrouve le style anglais dans ces maisons aux bow-windows, à son environnement très vert et fleuri.
Un endroit particulièrement charmant.
J'aime beaucoup la branche du cèdre au premier plan qui crée un effet de relief.
Très belle image.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hola Maria.
Que composicion mas fantastica, me encanta esta bonita casa y el jardin con esa variedad de plantas, resulta ideal. Tu encuadre es sensacional, con una cierta linea diagonal respecto al cielo, pero dando ese elegante toque con la rama del pino.
Un precioso dia de sol, que has captado en esta luminosa imagen con un bello colorido.
Buen comienzo de semana. Saludos.
Luis.

muy curiosa la influencia británica en argentina y uruguay, acá en brasil la influencia francesa era mas importante y después la norte-americana. muy hermosa arquitectura, bello escenario con jardines y buena luz, punto de vista y definición para mostrar todo.
acá tenemos hoy una mezcla de niebla, llovizna y frió, un clima loco porque parecía que el frió llevaría todas las nubes ayer.mejor así porque no habrá heladas.
saludos
