We’re not there right now. We usually make a trip to NC in the Spring but our schedule is a little different this year. (and every year! lol)
I wanted to use the Waterlogue app (for IPADS) on some of my Spring photos and came across these.
Biltmore Estate is a beautiful place to visit any time of year but never more beautiful than Spring when the tulips are in bloom.
The photo I chose is of the side of the house with the wisteria in full bloom.
(I put the original pics into a mosaic)
“Completed in 1895, George Vanderbilt’s 250-room chateau is as impressive today as it was more than a century ago. Biltmore House is truly a wonder of architecture and hospitality.” Click HERE to learn more about the history of this amazing home!

Oh Wow - a wonderful post! I went to the link you provided and read every word. What a fabulous estate! As always, love your waterlogue photos.
P.S. I did read somewhere or heard somewhere that Anderson Cooper (of CNN-Anderson Cooper 360) is Gloria Vanderbilt's son.)

Hi Miss Lavender Dreams,
We are headed down to Biltmore this week to see the gardens, this will be our first spring up here and things are really beginning to be bee-u-tee-ful.

So, so pretty and elegant! And the way you used the watercolor is fabulous :) Thanks for sharing with us, sweet Diane!
Much love!
I love this app and YES!!! they DO look like lovely watercolors!!
We were at the Biltmore before Christmas and would enjoy visiting in the spring time!!
Oh.gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. I have only been to Biltmore once and it was the day they were bringing the big Christmas tree in on a sleigh. It was just a fluke that we were there that day----oh---it was beautiful. Your app makes such beautiful pictures. xo Diana
We've been there and it is an amazing place. The watercolor app is fabulous. Love all of your pics.

Biltmore reminds me a bit of the castles in the Loire Valley in France - only those are a little bit older. Beautiful pictures!
Lovely images and the watercolor app is cool! What fun! Have a happy week ahead!
Beautiful indeed.
Very nicely done Diane! I would love to visit this place some time. Have a great week!
Loved all your pictures! :)
What a wonderful place to visit, beautiful!!! I love the Waterlogue app on my phone:) Have a wonderful week.
Sweet
I love it ❤️❤️❤️
This is the best water painting program. Your photos are so pretty!
Just exquisite! Every home looks beautiful with tulips blooming!
Diane, What beautiful pictures and the effect is so pretty , like real water colors. Hope you are having a great Spring. I saw so many trees getting ready to bloom today.xoxo,Susie
These are beautiful pictures!! I love the waterlogue app too. Have you tried the Glaze app? I think it was made by the same people who made waterlogue. It's pretty neat too. I would love to see the Biltmore Estate one day...especially when the tulips are in bloom. :)
just beautiful!! :) The app looks like so much fun :) The Biltmore Estate would be so much fun to visit...glad to see your pics! :)
What beautiful pictures! Looks like a wonderful place to visit!

Lovely watercolors! For some reason I get anxious when I see huge estates like this. I think I'm the one who would have to clean it, and even if I were convinced there'd be plenty of help, I'd worry about running out of money!
I've never been to this one, but the Eastman Kodak house in Rochester NY is a beauty too.
Pretty post, and I still don't have this app! I really want to take Shelley to the Biltmore Estate. I think she'd love it!
So pretty. I've not been to Biltmore in the spring, but I definitely need to add it to my list of places to visit. That list gets longer by the day. Wishes for a bright and blessed week.
Loving that app!
That app sure does a great job! I just have't had much time to okay with it.
Diane, your watercolors are great and what a beautiful subject. I am getting a smartphone this week so I can use the Waterlogue app. I'm so excited and I sure hope the phone is smarter than me..Happy Sunday..Judy
Beautiful photos of a place I'd like to one day visit. They are so pretty in the Waterlogue app.
A wonderful stately home to visit Diane.
Your waterlogue images are charming - you could even print them off on watercolor paper and frame them!!!
I've been seeing alt f bloggers playing with the watercolor app. Looks like fun.
Hi Diane, lovely watercolor pics and collage from Biltmore. I have not been, but must visit when I am next in NC.
Love that watercolor app.
Have a wonderful week.
Hugs
What beautiful spot! And those waterlogue app turned them into such charming images. I LOVE the dogwood one... I'd frame it...
What a neat app! I'm going to give that a try. Thanks for sharing!
Diane, these waterlogued images are simply stunning! At our tea party, Jenn showed us her waterlogue app, and we were all so impressed with this instant artistry of the tea and treats on our table!
Love your mosaic of the actual landscape, too!
Have a wonderful week, my friend!
Hugs,
Poppy
Diane, everyone else has already said it all...there nothing left to add except I have have lived in NC for 22 years and have never been there...what's wrong with me???
Beautiful photos you did with your ipad app. So cool! Have a Happy Easter!
Hi Diane, Thank you for introducing me to the Biltmore Estate and thank you for the link. I learned a lot from it. I should plan to visit it one day.
Biltmore is such a beautiful place, especially in the Spring! We've gone many times, but not recently...would love to go again soon.
Thanks so much for sharing at Amaze Me Monday...
Blessings,
Cindy
Biltmore Estate looks like a lovely place to visit. I like the effect created by the waterlogue app. Have a wonderful week and blessings for Easter. +
These are gorgeous, I would so love to have an application like this, but I do not have the right little piece of technology, oh well, I will enjoy your shares. Happy Easter my friend~
Hi there name mate! Thank you for forever linking up :)
You are really enjoying your water-colour app :) I actually like the few photos you have been producing. I wouldn't thought that it came from a real photo if I wasn't told.
Spring is indeed a beautiful season to anywhere in the world. The blooms and colours are inspiring and heartwarming.
Wishing you a great week ahead name mate :)
We loved our visit to Biltmore-- but it was between TG and Christmas...beautifully decorated, but I'd love to go back this time of year. Probably not gonna' happen though, so thanks for sharing your memories.
When I lived in GA, I heard about this wonderful place but never made it to see for myself. Thanks for your great photos. Your edits are quite interesting, too.
