Incredible what the camera sees and the eye misses. I clicked away at these breakers only aware of the height and force. The camera captures the delicate tracery and detail in each wave. .
Cettie at the gate of the Breakers. Her namesake's portrait hangs in this mansion. People passing wanted to know about her and what her name was : ) My Mom happily explained and told them her name : D Thanks to my sister, J'adore Ballet, for helping Cettie pose! The mansions are so beautiful this time of year...still decorated inside and out for Christmas.

Something from last summer. I'm missing the warm weather. I love seeing the seabirds out on their own small islands.
The Breakers was built by Cornelius Vanderbilt II between 1893 and 1895. The structure is a 70 room, 5 level mansion and is 125,339 square feet. It was modeled after the Italian Renaissance palazzos found in Turin and Genoa. It was purchased by The Preservation Society of Newport County in 1972 for $365,000.

So I am being way to slack with this project lately. Gotta get my head back into it.
This is from an event I shot, these breakers were top quality.
The Breakers is one of the grandest of the Newport mansions. It stands as a symbol of the Vanderbilt family’s financial and social superiority in turn of the century America. The Breakers was purchased as a wooden house in 1885 and then remodeled to create a 70 room Italian Renaissance style palazzo. Owned by the Preservation Society, today the house is designated a National Historic Landmark. Preview for Sunday Drive iPhone app. View entire route on your iPhone. More info: www.sundaydriveapp.com
