Description
I went to this place yesterday. The sky was over cast so i got what I GOT. I got a lot of photos to post now.
the oak you see here is about 350 yes old as some Frenchman planted 28 oaks in two roles so a wagon can be driven between them. no one knows who it was but all the trees he planted is still there and will live about another 250 years as the live oaks life is around 600 years old. They find the roots goes all the way to the Mississippi Rive.
I will show the lines of trees soon in these shots I going to post. Now I just like to show you the size of the trees. They went thought a lot of storms over the years. The Home you see in the back was build in 1837-39 by Jacques I. Roman. it in a Greek Revived architecture

cotton or snow? Plantation? - I'm guessing cotton.
Awesome! that Oak is really big! I didn't know that they live so long! The place looks fantastic too!
Cool capture of the neato plantation home, beautifully framed between those awesome trees, Jock.
Very nice my friend!!

Nothing like the charm of a southern platation house. :) Excellent capture! :)

This looks like an amazing estate and it is remarkable that the tree roots can extend so far.A great shot and I an anxious to see more.
~Beautiful capture of this stately old place!~
Nice photo, it has a great sense of depth.
Jock, this is a wonderful photo of this place my friend and I'm so excited to see all the pics you post from this series. Had no idea those oaks lives to be 600 years old and am blown away at the sheer size of this one. The home in the background looks fabulous and I hope you have some more photos of it to share also.
nice image :)
Probably mature trees of all beauties. It's good to spread our vision for my other friend ((5 + +)) Surement des arbres matures de toutes beautées . C'est bien de propager notre vision pour les autres mon ami ((5++))
Massive tree! I've seen the plantation near Charleston with the trees that were used as the path to Tara in the movie "Gone with the Wind". These are bigger than those.
