I think these images succesfully capture the essence of the place. It would be great for you to go back when there are threatening skies to add some drama.

I particularly like number 5.

That is one impressive building. No 7 with the pillars and the light direction just asks to be photographed.

Some lovely 'classic' images of a fascinating looking place. One to return to I would think.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Thank you for viewing and for the encouraging comments. It is a wonderful and tranquil place to visit - I have been several times and will keep returning to enjoy it and to take more photos in different conditions and seasons.
