Something old, from our trip to Melbourne in 2009. Two blended exposures (to get more sky detail).

Rust Manor, London County, VA

in and around the ground of kirklinton hall, an empty husk of a stately home from the 1600's. a great location and I was privileged to meet the current ownner who plans to restore it to its former glory.

I hope these four look thematically good together and work as a teaser for the shots of the hall to follow.

As you can see, it didn't really matter what color clay I used. (At least until I sanded off the finish -- see that here.)
