Umberellas at Da Monsta

Da Monsta is the name of the small structure that Philip Johnson built at the entrance to his Glass House grounds, in anticipation of it being a visitor centre. He donated his property to the National Trust.

I'm catching up with holiday photos and posting the missing links in my October album as for one reason and another, the processing of these photos has not progressed. So I think for the next while, this current album will also feature photos from New England and Connecticut - so that I am not distracted by processing new photos!

That's the plan.

Here is the link to the Glass House itself.

@moonmtn @carolmw @ziggy77 @taffy @ivan @gaylewood @onewing @haskar @jerome @kwind @flowerfairyann @helenm2016 @olivetreeann I'm so pleased that you like this simple image - thankyou all for your comments which cheered me. The umberellas featured at various points around the site - I think Johnson had in mind not only how his buildings and landscape should look, but also how his visitors might look in the rain!

[Catherine Otley]

This is a great photo. The diagonal, the contrasting colours, the shapes of the umbrella handles proves that less is more!

@redandwhite thank you so much for your kind comment.
