My name is Liga Liepina and I spend all my free time doing equine photography. Born in Latvia, I moved to Iceland at the age of 14. I have been obsessed with horses since I can remember myself. It started with collecting all possible newspaper clippings, posters, and calendars of horses and once I had my first-ever riding lesson, I knew horses were going to be a huge part of my life.

*** NO CREDIT TAKEN FOR PHOTO! *** Designed (the original and expansions) by Cooperstown, NY architect Frank Proctor Whiting in 1922. Owned today by the CEO of Pemcor oil refineries and former CEO of Tosco oil - Thomas O'Malley. The Tudor-style mansion, is regarded as one of the more impressive residences looking out upon Long Island Sound. As chronicled in The Great Estates, the Junior League of Greenwich’s history of the town’s magnificent old properties, the house dates back to the 1920s. The original structure, a somewhat traditional Tudor, was built for James P. Cahill, who ran a brokerage firm. The next owner, George H. Townsend, who was an entrepreneur, expanded the house threefold to make room for his seven kids. In addition to adding a big east wing, Townsend put up a turret, which became his private domain. The expansion was also done by architect Frank P. Whiting. In 1933, it should be noted, Horse Island hosted a wedding reception for Townsend’s daughter Kay and Dick Chapman, whose father owned another storied manse, since demolished, on Round Island, in Greenwich Harbor. The house, with an assessed market value of $29 million, spans more than 14,000 square feet. It has nine bedrooms and thirteen bathrooms. Separately @ 10 Flagler Drive, Greenwich CT is another stone mansion designed by Frank P. Whiting for James P Cahill

I have to admit, I haven’t had much experience camping but this place really blew me away!
