I photographed this Victorian home in Cape May three years ago, then added some light and softness to it before uploading to Flickr. It’s still getting quite a few views, so I thought I’d post it here for you, along with another softened view . . . .
The owners did a great job picking the colors, didn’t they? I miss the East Coast when I look at photos like this.
Hope your week’s going well so far. Happy Summer!

Pearls & Prose 
Great picture….
Thank you!
The colors that look appropriate to that area & climate would ‘read’ as insignificant in our area & climate – but what an engaging house – Rose would have found it enchanting !
Yes, it’s funny how certain architecture looks in different areas. We saw a “Califorina house” with the stucco walls and orange tile roof in Maryland and it looked just plain silly.
She would have loved it for sure, Susan!
That’s a house I’d love to have. We never see house like this in Europe, for me it has verything I like about American architecture. Love the colors and what you did with the light.
Thanks, Caroline. I loved visiting Cape May and seeing all the old Victorians. If I had to live on the East Coast, that area would be high on my list.
Makes me want to pour a glass of lemonade and take a good book out onto that porch, 🙂
Sounds like a plan, Jackie. 🙂
Wow…these are awesome! Love the colors of the home and I like the way you added the plants in the foreground. Beautiful work!
Thanks so much!
Do you mean the tree branches in the first photo? They do look a bit superimposed, but there were really there. Same with the hydrangeas. I just added light and some softening. 🙂
Yep, I like the way they frame the home. It feels like a beautiful place to live. 🙂
cool colors and beauty 🙂
Thank you. 🙂
