WINCHESTER MYSTERY HOUSE

SAN JOSE, CA

The Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California, is a sprawling Victorian mansion that was built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of gun magnate William Winchester. The house is renowned for its extraordinary architecture, with its 160 rooms, 40 bedrooms, 2 basements, 10,000 square feet of living space, and a seemingly endless array of hallways, staircases, and windows. The house is said to be haunted, with many believing that the ghosts of those killed by Winchester guns haunt the grounds.

The house was constructed over a period of 38 years, beginning in 1884 and continuing until Winchester's death in 1922. It is said that Winchester believed that she was cursed by the spirit of those killed by Winchester guns and that she was attempting to appease them by continuously building and expanding the house. The grounds are now open to visitors, who can tour the house and explore its many features.

In addition to the house itself, visitors can explore the gardens and grounds, which include a conservatory, a large fountain, and a number of other structures, including a chicken coop and a barn. The house and grounds are also said to be home to a number of supernatural phenomena, including strange sounds and lights, ghostly apparitions, and other paranormal activity.

The Winchester Mystery House is a fascinating piece of history and a popular tourist destination in the San Jose area. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history and the paranormal.

Prepare to be amazed We went to see Hanami, the cherry blossoms at Hakone Gardens, a Japanese garden in Saratoga, California. It was an enchanting experience to walk at night below cherry trees in full blossom, and along bamboo trees. This is the main gate where you enter.

I processed a realistic, a balanced, and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
