There are a number of historic old "Inns" and resorts up here in the mountains. This one was restored to its former glory recently and boasts 360 degree views of the White Mountains. We experienced October's bright blue weather in September this year, so I make no apologizes for the sky. I had to tone it down from the DNG!!!

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Wow, what a grand place - appropriately named I'd say!

Ummmm...PJ...that's a building not a mountain. A super looking building at that, very nicely done.

Yeah, that's why someone put the flag on top, to prove they'd climbed up there. :)

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
And a grand perspective it is too! I like that you show some of the mountains in the distance on the right. You had to be in just the right spot to get this all in! I know those blue skies you speak of and I am grateful for them. They have just been wonderful this year with the autumn colors.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Great shot of this magnificient old Inn Pat...the sky is a very dark blue...but nice...especially with clouds...gerry

I love shots like this. Is it clapboard on the inn? What was it restored from - was it an inn that had just fallen into disrepair or was it originally something else?
The line of the clouds at right angles with the building gives this a real sense of dynamism too. I love it. Saturated colours but it sounds like that's about the quality of the light. Great stuff PJ.

Life is the pits sometimes, but God and your friends are always there to help you through it.
I think all the members have commented so suffice it to say there's no a whole lot that hasn't been said. It's really a great photo PJ. 360 degree views pretty much says it all. Stay there and you know what an owl gets to see. It's so clear.

Magnificent is the word. What a capture of this grand building. Where is it located exactly? It does sort of remind me of the hotel in 'The Shining', which is in keeping with Halloween..

~ Beautiful restored building and great shot...you got the angle just perfect! The only thing I thought of before reading your narrative was omg...that must be a real bugger to paint and also to wash all the windows, lol. Love the deep blue sky too. Well done PJ!

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that everyone believing into Him should not perish but have eternal life.
The colours of the building and sky are quite complimentary to each other. Love the angle too.

Aloha PJ, Whatever you did to the sky worked great. The blue really makes the yellow Inn stand out very nice. They did a good job restoring the place. This one goes home.

What an absolutely amazing shot! Great perspective and lovely colors. Looks like a great place to spend a vacation.
I'm only wondering what you did to the building for it looks a little out of place as if it doesn't belong in this pic?! Just curious though it doesn't make this shot any less purrfect.
