Back to the beginning

The front of the house, which was what first attracted me to it, quite different and yet similar to the back as shown below:

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/250s f/11.0 at 60.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

This view is impressive as opposed to the homey view of the back. V

more axial than the collonaded elevations implies; certainly characterful

It is exotic and beautiful. I can well see why you were drawn to it. Beautiful restoration work. V

I think it is a great looking building. Enough decoration to soften the square lines, and the adobe style walls set off the coloured window shutters really well.

Looks like a ship in the middle of the desert.V.
