One view out of the tower window, looking down on the house and its back courtyard. On the ground floor the window you can see was the brewhouse. This hasnt been on our tour, as its now a multi media room, although we used the stairs in that smaller tower just by that door you can see to begin our journey upstairs. We will be there again on our way down with a view out of the door. The second floor window you can see is Mr Wynn's bedroom. The little window next to it us for a small closet in the room, matching a toilet in the other end of the room. Then the attic room window. The attics were used as dorms for the servants, and then later on in the history of the house it was rented to tenents. Time to tackle those stairs now, we are on our way down.

You can just lower me down from here with a rope. I think it would be safer. I saw those stairs!!

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"

This has an M. C. Escher-esque feel to it. I like it but I think it has the potential to be a great photo if you were to have leaned out just a bit more to avoid that out-of-focus roof or wall edge at the bottom of the shot. Even if you couldn't lean out you could hold the camera out. Digital cameras allow a photographer the opportunity to go crazy shooting photos, so even if you couldn't have looked through the view finder, holding it at arm's length, you could still shoot until you got the image you really wanted. Also, tilting the photo about 20 degrees clockwise would have captured a bit more of the flat character of the opposite wall and courtyard at the bottom, allowing the viewer to see the courtyard enter that door on the left and, I'm assuming, a door on the right under that cylindrical tower. And, not knowing what kind of camera you're using, if you'd had a super wide-angle zoom to apply to the view, somewhere between 12 and 18mm, that would have made a huge difference, capturing even more of the character of the place. Just a thought. Or three. ;^>

Indeed, as .lloridaa_enjelat writes, above, this is totally Escher! Great image. Well done.

It is so clear that it reminds me of looking down on a doll house. Just a perfect photo and perspective Jo. Great work.
