What a beauty! It is unimaginable how many memories this old mansion holds...nice composition and color. Well done Buck!

Hey Bucksutton. Being from the Old World, I can only look on with envy at the majesty of these colonial style homes of the New World. I can imagine former occupiers sitting on the terrace sipping at iced tea. This home exudes former glory. What a shame it has been abandoned to decay. Good photo.

I would love to restore this beauty to how it should be.

I really love old houses';love to speculate about who once lived there and what happened to them.

OH...my life-long dream...to "rescue" a place like this...it is full of "life". Please go back and take more pix through the windows....I will be watching for it!!

Oh what character is on display here. If only this this grand ole mansion of the South could tell it's tells. Luv the detail in that wood. Excellent viewpoint you chose. Mission accomplished- to display the old South.
Suggestion: These wonderful photos need to be displayed in a higher resolution. Explore the Menue on your camera. I know it has a higher resolution.

I agree with Pat, your photo only makes me want more detail. The shingles, paint chips, all apply more character as well as depth. Still a great place and good shot. Look again at the front door and the trim above it. What details; Wow!

wow. it is like tara during and right after the war. i think i saw the movie 7 times. what will happen to this house? i love seeing places of the old south also. most of us spend little time in alabama and mississippi and louisiana (other than n'awlins).

sweet home alabama....

I miss it at home...although i'm only 5 minutes from the border ;)

What city is tihs?

Hey neighbor to the south! I love this place and it's still in fine, fixable condition. This is a stately grand mannor. I'm quite a tresspasser when it comes to these places, I tend to go out with a map book and get lost in little speck towns and 'unincorporated' areas on weekends. I'd have looked for a way in or at least peeked through the windows!

It sure tells a story, just sitting there as it does. Being there in person must have been even more haunting.. imagining the activity that would have taken place when the home was still alive with inhabitants. Anyway, you captured it well, although I bet you remember it in even more rich detail! Beautiful!
