    Have you ever taken a Picture that?

    Have you ever taken a picture without knowing the view is famous?

    I was looking at some of my pictures of Ireland yesterday while getting in the mood for St. Pat's Day. I came across a picture I took of Kylemore Abbey. I took this picture without seeing any Travel Pictures from magazines or Vaction Planners. I just like the view of the castle and took this picture. I didn't know this was a famous view of Kylemore Abbey. I now have the September-October 2004 Ireland of the Welcomes Magazine and it is on the from cover. I also have the 2002 Ireland Vacation Planner and it is also on the front cover. It has also been the subject of many paintings.

      Nice.
      I remember my DH taking one of me in Brienz Switzerland and then seeing the scene in a picture postcard. I thought that was cool to see me in the exact same scene.

        Walt,

        It's beautiful!!! I'm not surprised that it has been the subject of many paintings.

        If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

        BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

          First trip to Kaua`i I took some pics that looked familiar but I couldn't figure out why. Then, learning more about the islands, I realized they were familiar because I took pictures of the mountain that is the first image shown in the first Indiana Jones movie.

          Later I popped the video tape in our player, and there was the same mountain.

          “This is a blouse and skirt. I don't know what you're talking about.”

          “You shouldn't wear that body.”
