Description
I want to thank Stacey (IceShark39) for mentioning that Hearst called this 250,000 acre (1,012 km2) estate with fourteen miles of coastline, �the Ranch�. Hearst Castle was built on Rancho Piedra Blanca purchased by Hearst's father, in 1865. There are still wild Zebra roaming the estate that were released from Hearst�s own private zoo. Another shot of the Neptune Pool with some of Charles Cassou's statuary. His statues are scattered all around the pool area. The stairs that you see are a duplicate of the stairs that I am standing on, to take this photo. Some info from Wikipedia and photo recently scanned. Zoom for better detal.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments.
They are very much appreciated.

It is a very beautiful place and I love how the statues are in the water too. A lovely capture.
Stellar ambience, details and patterns in this capture, Dana. Again, what an ostentatious display of affluence.
Beautiful image of the Neptune pool. It's been ages since we visited Hearst Castle, but if I remember correctly, this pool is fed by a mountain stream, and it is very cold water. :-)
Another marvelous capture Dana, congratulations!
Very interesting and great shot of this estate! ;o)
