Breakfast Room at Biltmore
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:09:01+00:00The Breakfast Room at Biltmore. The ceilings make a lot of the rooms in the house, this one is quite elaborate.
Italian Garden View
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:09:08+00:00Work being completed on the Italian Garden Koi Pond in late February, 2020. Clear day so you can see the mountains in the background. The path and direction of the garden from this vantage point provides a leading line for viewers to take them into the photo. Will try to go back when work is complete and photograph this scene again.
South Terrace Statue
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:09:17+00:00Statue of Adonis on the South Terrace at the Biltmore Estate. "Rough" vertical rule of thirds composition as the eye goes back and forth from the statue to the structure. Nice to enjoy a day without a ton of people on the property.
Loggia Abstract – Biltmore Estate
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:09:36+00:00The Loggia (or patio) at the Biltmore House. The shadows caught my attention so I tried to use the thirds composition rule and the columns for symmetry.
South Terrace View – Biltmore Estate
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:10:14+00:00Beautiful view from the South Terrace at the Biltmore Estate. Even lighting as a cloud went past the sun, removed the harsh shadows. Bear Creek Road around the Farmers Market is at the base of the mountains in the distance.
Ducks on the Bass Pond
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:10:22+00:00I never enjoyed shooting landscapes in winter because of the "bare" appearance. If you look for the "texture" instead of the color there are still plenty of quality images to take. Large flock of ducks landed and went across the water to balance the tree branches in the composition.
Biltmore Estate Boat House
Jonathan Jackson2020-10-17T20:49:32+00:00Another image further along the path. The contrast between the trees that haven't leafed out adds some interest. The winter/spring transition just beginning. Boat house at the Biltmore Estate.
Biltmore Estate Bass Pond
Jonathan Jackson2020-10-17T20:49:24+00:00The boat house on the bass pond at the Biltmore Estate. Finally captured a couple images along the walk here that I like in black and white.
Orchid Macro 7939
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:23:25+00:00I liked the lines and greyscale feeling on this orchid macro. Just a pop of color. Taken in the Biltmore Conservatory.
Biltmore Pergola
Jonathan Jackson2020-06-05T00:23:32+00:00The pergola at the Biltmore Estate creates an interesting photo. The wooden rafters leads you to the light at the end of the tunnel.
