Picture This #455 ~ Getting Away

Many thanks to Benni for hosting this week. A great theme, with lots of possibilities. I decided to split my entries between local places I enjoy visiting and far-away places I've visited. So, two of each. 

1) Aberglasny House, about thirty miles from where I live, has beautiful formal gardens.

2) At the Grand Canyon, there are other things to see apart from the canyon itself.....like this traditional Hopi house.

3) The River Cleddau, just three miles from where I live, is a great place for canoeing. In this photo I had gone about five miles up-stream to the old mill at Black Pool.

4) When visiting New York, this is one landmark you must see!!

  1. Hi Mitch, magnificent shots! The formal garden is lovely with the woman in red adding interest and contrast. I am particularly interested in the Hopi house as my father-in-law spent some time in the 30's living with them. Cool beautiful shot of the river and hidden house (with water wheel?) and grand picture of Lady Liberty. All of your pictures seem to have one element that draws my eye in.

  4. Hi Mitch! Excellent choice for this week's theme. Love the manicured garden... Awesome building of stone masonry in the second shot... Serenity at its best in the third photo... I agree with you, Mitch! Visiting New York city and not seeing the Statue of Liberty is hard to understand...
