civilized # 2592 ~ the Great Room

The Great Room ~ Newcomb, NY - in the Adirondack PARK • click to embiggenNow that I've broken out of the 20mm box, I am able to make pictures which represent a greater swath of a given referent. In this case, the referent is the Great Room at Rist Camp.

In the Adirondack camp tradition, the Great Room nomenclature refers to the main room of a camp which, in the case of the Great Camps, is truly great indeed. Rooms into which the entire Rist Camp would easily be accommodated, in some examples 2 side-by-side Rist Camps could be accommodated with room to spare.

By those standards, the Rist Camp Great Room is rather modest but, as is d'riguer in most Adirondack camps, there is an impressive fireplace which is the centerpiece of the room.

So what has inspired you to break out of the box?

That fireplace and mantle are certainly impressive.
