To the Manor Born

Last year I photographed the fine Rustic Gothic manor house "The Grange", and gave it a romantic feel (link below). In the previous shot today, I described how this unique house came to be built in the colony in 1847, with a link to more information about its fascinating owner, Dr William Valentine, the surgeon and naturalist.

 

In this photograph I will again steer us into an artistic interpretation through the use of black and white. The light was perfect for it and that white picket fence is incorporated to create a sense of "distance" between us and this gothic building.
