Been there many a time. It's an amazing tour, especially beautiful at Christmas when your daughter is singing a solo in the main hall! ;) Okay, sorry... mom moment aside, I do wish they'd unlock ALL the doors. There are areas there never seen by the public that REALLY tease me each time I go there! lol. This is a beautiful capture of it Rebecca. Looks like it was a very pretty day and I have no idea how you managed to get this shot without a ton of people in it!!??

Oh, yes...the masses were removed through the wonders of Photoshop! It was hot hot hot and busy!

Beautiful.. I don't think I would want to live there.. It is just too big..

Thanks, Morwyn! I don't think I'd mind living there :)

In that case, I'm very happy I voted so high. You deserve extra credit for a super editing job too!! No ghosts anywhere. ;)

Thanks again BJ! It took me quite awhile to remove the masses, but I like the look of it so much more without all the tourists :)

Excellent capture and editing Rebecca. I will live there with you, OK? :~)

Sounds great to me, Mimi! :) I think there will be enough room! Thanks for your kind comments!

It's funny, i live like two or three hours away from there and i have never seen it. what a pity, but nice picture. i love this one.

Oh man, AMAZING LAWN! I now have lawn envy...

Real nice pic!

hey CG,

excellent job on removing the people objects, they always such a pain? LOL

Nice shot Rebecca...nice work on removing any people too. I've been there for the Christmas tour and highly recomend it but for my money the summer concert series is when to go. They have concerts (we saw the Indigo Girls) on the veranda just off to the left of your shot.

That is so pretty! I am going there on Thursday with my mom and my sister i cant wait! I like the angle of the picture, luff it!!!

I'm a little more than 2 hours from there....the inside is stellar...but I don't think i could live there either

This picture reminds me of my back yard... just kidding jejeje. Nice shot.

I absolutely love this!!

A beautiful capture Rabecca. That's a very nice area to visit.

i want to go there! it looks so beautiful! i think it would be cool to visit, but i wouldnt want to live there. u ever notice how ppl who live in beautiful homes like that take them for granted? they dont see them as beautiful. just a pain in the buns to keep nice. or a statis symbol. not as a beautiful piece of art to be appreciated everytime u look at it. this is a very nice shot. u photoshopped out all the ppl? really?! ur amazing!

Whoa - this could be a USA castle! It would be like living in a luxury hotel. Excellent in all ways> clarity, composition and details. The lawn is rich in color. The architecture is awesome. Super editing removing all those hot tourists! I have a daughter who lives in N.C, so when I visit maybe I can see this beautiful Biltmore Estate. Wonderful work of photography Rebecca :*>
