Nicely exposed, and I like how you framed it with the door.
I doubt plantation owners were 'fair' to slaves; they were property, not people. Ok, ok they were 4/5ths people (but that was also for economic calculation, not compassion or decency).

Hello Paolo,
Thanks for your thoughts and appreciation. I will try b and w and sepia as well just to see. Funny how our mind captures B and W as the past but truth is we do and they did live in color.

Hello Dale Ann, Thanks for your note. As I walked the grounds I hoped the people who lived here did find some joy in their environment. I asked my Mom if she felt they could have been happy here. I then thought maybe, although not idea conditions by any means, maybe it was a safe haven in a time that should not have been. It makes you appreciate your freedom/your rights as a person.

Thank you. I hoped to capture the lighting just right and keep the feeling that was there.
