A lovely home in an equally lovely setting. I did got through Brattleboro, only got a couple of pictures through the windshield, as it was pouring. We do a Brattleboro to Bennington loop now and then, we're not far from the border and like your state :)
Kipling was one of my favorite writers when I was younger. to see his house "in real life" is moving.; The name of the place makes me dream..as well as the idea of "floating in the autumn fields".. Autumn seems to be wonderful on your side of the world!
So beautiful. I loved Rudyard Kipling growing up, and now I know how he reached inspiration so easily. So would I, looking out those windows at this peaceful scene.
This photo reminds me so much of a dream I had many years ago where I was sitting in a window seat in a bay window and looking out at the early fall scene of green grass and trees that were just beginning to turn. It's funny how some dreams stick with you and others float away before you've opened your eyes.
Another lovely composition...you take an ordinary photograph and turn it into something very special - an artistic event.
But, I have a bone to pick: how come you folks up in them thar parts have all the fun houses lived in by famous people like Kipling? Don't seem fair to me!
All we got is someplace where Al Capone stayed down in Miami!
Wonderful shot of an ol' house, bc. Is this "jewel" really shaped like a boat? Kipling wrote Jungle Book and Captains Courageous here . . . who'd a thunk it. I wouldn't mind spending some quality time here.
Hah ... I am with some of the others ... I had no idea Kipling lived for a time in the USA. I had always considered him encased in the sub-continent as an escapee from the UK!

Is this an old barn that has been made into a home? It is beautiful. And a nice photo too.
