While in the Italian Garden at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina, I captured this reflection of the house in one of the pools. The monochrome image seems to take me back in time to the late 1890s, when the house was built.

THis picture lends itself well to black and white.
Pretty image and yes, it's fun to think back to the days when the mansion was new!
History is always in black and white.
Because memory starts to fade?
I like the idea of the monochrome taking you back in time! Nice, George.
it is beautiful, i am thinking of doing some black and white, one of the ladies on a blog said take it in color but think about it in black and white. i am going to try it.
1880's eh? Well if it had been taken then, it would predate one of my favorite photographers --Ansel Adams.
But this does have a timeless look about it. Nicely shot, George.
Lovely, and calming!
I see the house, it is lovely and unusual. Looks almost oriental!
A wonderful B / W, beautiful water lilies.
The picture is really classic. I love it. It takes me back in time.
It looks nice even in a reflection.
A gorgeous garden, George. I would love to see it sometime!
I love these shots of ponds and the life living in them.
They are wonderful places to stop and repose, reflect and rejuvenate.
I like very much black and white shots! This is marvelous!
Hugs.
That photo is excellent in B&W!!
This is really beautiful in Black and white, George, and makes it look like an historic scene.
Excellent!
Very nice black and white photo.
Regards and best wishes
