This is the house that President Hayes lived in, in my home town of Fremont, Ohio. He was president of the U.S. from 1877-1881.

Very nice image Jimbob with the trees dipped in ice. It has a real Christmassy look.
P.S. Trust the President had fireplaces in all rooms those days :)

This is a dandy shot Jim. However I would like to see it with either less orton or none. It is a beautiful scene.

I so like what Orton does to trees and you just gave me an idea. It worked nicely on the house too. Well done, my dear!

If you have a garden please feed the birds this winter, & supply drinking water not ice, it's so important. . . . Help dwindling bird numbers survive.

Oh, speaking of nuts..Nuts...Tick took my comment, but it didn't detract from the beauty of this abode. Granted, it's no ocean front property in Hawaii, but I think Ohio would do!

Merry Christmas, JimOrtonizerBob!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
