Georgia’s a big state and the road from home can be long and winding. Brian Brown knows it well.

“Being invited to stay in some of the historical homes I photograph has been rewarding, especially being able to ‘see the bones’ of places I often only experience from the outside. It’s also been an honor getting to know so many others who share my interest in architecture and preserving our historic built environment. I’m really glad that people from our smaller towns can now see their hometowns on the Internet. When I started my work, they were often poorly represented.”
