In May, I visited The Biltmore for my very first time. I was totally bummed that photos were not permitted inside the house, and I respected that. Not once did i non chalantly pull out my iPhone and sneak a shot. The grounds gave me plenty of beauty to process anyway. Here are some of my favorite shots.
 |
| Near the entrance of the estate, there is a selection of garden blooms. |
 |
| At first I wanted this shot w/o anyone, but I actually love boy in orange shirt in the distance. |
 |
| Biltmore from the side. I get why people come here to take wedding photos. |
 |
| One of the many statues on the grounds. |
 |
| Limestone carvings have family symbols and fleur-de-lis that are looking mighty, ahem, phallic. |
 |
| All the copper work at Biltmore has the lovely aqua patina. |
 |
| The air is so incredibly clean here. |
 |
| My immaturity quickly resurfaces when I see a grotesque with boobies. |
 |
| The architectural tour took us to landings and rooftops. |
 |
| Love the scale of these doors in the stables, converted to retail shops. |
 |
| Speaking of retail, I loved the recycled metal toadstools in the garden shop. |
 |
| The most unadorned room at Biltmore, the simplicity of this potting room inspires me. |
 |
| Aliums - beautiful purple puff balls. |
 |
| Would make a nice frame or mirror design. |
 |
| vivid colors all around. |
 |
| Red Hat ladies head for the conservatory. |
 |
| Love the rustic beauty of the upstairs room at the Stable Cafe |
