Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. The Wren Building, viewed from the 'town' side, maintains the symmetry of architecture of the era. On the steps from the arched door are two small cannons that were captured from the British after the surrender at Yorktown. The statue is of Norborne Berkeley, Lord Botetourt, the fourth governor of the Virginia colony. (Shortly after this photo was taken, several college students brought some pumpkins to the lawn and proceeded to carve them for Halloween.)

My daughter went to school there. It was really a treat to see all that Williamsburg had to offer. Your photograph is excellent and brings it all back.

AVATAR BY PJ............... I'd like to thank those of you who have been so kind as to add my photos to your favorites. Please Visit My Gallery
I had to look up The Wren Building / College of William & Mary on Wikipedia & noticed it has a long list of academic firsts as well as some honors. It definitely shaped the colleges & universities of present day. Wonderful capture of this historical college. I like your focus on the statue with the college in the background.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Not only another very interesting addition to the series Thad, but your 'composition' is spot on as well. You've placed a mix of nature, culture and history in a proper perspective. My compliments my friend.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
A nicely composed scene of the rest of the Wren building Thad - I like the distance from which you shot - a good perspective that way.

It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
