This beautiful setting is located just west of Nashville, Tn. I have been able to make two visits there, and would love to go back one of these days.

It is situated on 100 acres, that the original owners bought, and had landscaped after selling Maxwell Coffee House. It is now a botanical gardens that is truly enjoyable.

This image has been in the bin for awhile, I now have the Topaz clarity plug in, and ran it through that program, what a difference it made.

Thank you for commenting.

It is a beautiful place and you are a great ambassador.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Awesome Sandi! You did a super job showing this garden off. You know this place is only five to ten minutes from my house but it's even closer to my heart. You do such wonderful work with garden scenes. A pleasure to see.



Beautiful light show going on there now and I had the chance to see Chihuli Glass there a few years back. Let me know when you're able to visit again.
