Since the Middle Ages the chateau in Arc-en-Barrois has belonged to princes, royal families, and French nobility. During the 1789 revolution part of the chateau was destroyed and later confiscated during the First Republic. At the restoration of the monarchy in 1830, King Louis-Philippe (1830-1848), member of the Orleans family, resumed ownership of the chateau and its vast forests. The King later transferred the property to his sister, Princess Adelaide d'Orleans. Between 1844 and 1848, Princess Adelaide rebuilt Château d'Arc-En-Barrois into its current form to serve as a hunting lodge. During World War I, the chateau served as a temporary English hospital, under the supervison of Miss Bromley-Martin. Later on, during World War II, the chateau briefly served as a local Nazi headquarters. In 2001, the chateau was bought by a Dutch shipping magnate who completely renovated the building to convert it into a Luxury Hotel.

根據89年大修的「農業發展條例」以及90年發布的「農業用地興建農舍辦法」規定，如果是八十九年以後取得的農地，土地面積必須大於756坪，二年之後才可以申請農舍。至於農民資格的認定，由於稅法已經取消「自耕農」的身分認定，身分證也不再加註職業登記，是以農民資格的認定大多由地方政府及農會自行處理，但是幾乎都沒有問題，也就是說，任何人只要完成農地過戶，設籍兩年以上，再提出無自用農舍證明即可申請興建農舍，不需要建築師簽證，而這麼低的門檻與簡單的程序，正如彭作奎當初所預言的一樣，開啟了一扇通往未知命運的大門，所以八年來農舍申請案大增，以偏遠的花蓮為例，94年核發農舍建照171件，95年核發農舍建照152件，96年核發農舍建照194件，97年預估也會超過150件，如果以這種每年150件以上的速度去化農地，每案又都是89年以後取得的新農地，就表示每年至少會有37.5公頃的農地興建農舍，當中即便有20%的農舍確實供作農用，仍舊表示每年會有30公頃以上的耕地消失，至於宜蘭就更熱鬧了，農發條例修正前曾在宜蘭置產的投資者，都在95年雪隧通車的那一刻舉國同歡，如今單單三星鄉一地每年的農舍增加量就已破百，壯圍、五結一帶則是滿目瘡痍，其他鄉鎮更不用講。這些如雨後春筍般長出的農舍多為「假農舍」，與農業生產毫無關係，大多只是作為都市人的假日別墅而已，若能與當地農村相安無事倒也罷了，偏偏「假農舍」帶來的問題不勝枚舉，包含污染農村環境、加速農地碎化、影響農地日照等等，當然最糟糕的還在後面，因為這些專為伺候都市人而分割的農地，一旦興建了房舍之後，根本不可能再變回真農地，「假農舍」對於土地的殺傷力就如同不可逆的化學反應一樣。

Rusty old plow and trailer deep in the forest of Ojibway Park in Windsor Ontario. They've been there so long the trees have grown into and over them.
A little drama over the sea at Brighton! Just minutes later the clouds parted and the blue sky returned.
The sunset might not have been so colourful the other night, but the golden light beamed between the buildings was awesome!
On this day in history....
The light was not kind to photographers.
The haze was dense, the clouds were non-discript and the contrast was high.
But we did get a brief light show over the Riggindale valley.
Northern Arizona has made a lasting impression on me. It is no wonder ancient native civilizations populated this area. This view is from the Tuzigoot pueblo that was built 700-900 years ago with a sprawling 100 room complex atop a hill in this area.
Last rays of summer, deer entering to autumn. Warm rays at a cold morning. Last day of summer, let's head to autumn on full speed.

I hate that this shot is out of focus when viewed in large. :( But, the lightrays are just so beautiful for me to just delete it. :p
I am really convinced that the cheapest way to cure unhappiness is to get close to nature. Try it. :)
I captured this Tyndall Effect last year while the sun was burning off the early morning fog.
Images like these are about being in the right place at the right time. One moment there is brilliant light rays and the next moment the fog has burned off and the light show is gone. this time i was lucky!
I have been shooting a lot lately and have plenty of images to process. I should be posting more frequently soon, as well as visiting your streams.
Enjoy your week!
When I was at this place, i saw this light that comes from the top of the trees splitted by the trees, true the "curtan", and final hitting the bottles gave just perfect light! I thought, well it might be a nice photo, and yes it turned out to be really nice! Say what you want, but I think it's important! =)
On Explore!!!
I was extremely happy when I got this shot. It was taken behind my backyard.
I really thank God that I did not miss it. I was looking out the window when all of a sudden faded light rays begin to appear in the sky. At first it was too faint to be seen in the camera but I waited. And guess what?? The rays got brighter and brighter. It was a beautiful sight!
God's creation is indeed amazing! =)
Have a beautiful and wonderful weekend!! Takecare and God bless!!

On Sunday morning we found a pasture with several horses and mules. It was incredible to see these beautiful animals basking in the morning light diffused through the fog. This horse was kind enough to strike a regal pose for several shots.
A shot taken from Portencross, looking across to the Isle of Arran. The light rays breaking through the clouds were stunning, although I don't think I captured it very well---not sure what I could have done to improve it either ;-/
Thanks in advance for your visit and comment!
Photography should be considered as a language which means that its grammar and its syntax have to be learnt before the medium can be fully exploited by the photographer.

Today was a shit day. Both my main photo and my back-up photo were foiled. So I acted like a pissy child and pouted for a little while, ate some lasagna and drank a beer. Then I got my shit together, rolled the proverbial sleeves, and swung away. On a serious note though, that is what I love about this project. I'm finding out who I am. I'm not crazy about this one, but considering the day, it's a damn mountain top, and I'm proud of it. And that's all I ever really hoped for.
You're breaking my paradise
Hearing an echo cry
Dreamland at your fate
You never find your way
All precious memories, you
had through the years
All they are passing one by one
You kill the memories
Wave off the pain and tears
10000 lonely dreams
On our way back down from Skiddaw we was treated to this display at sunset, so glad I took my filters with me :)

If black holes suck everything into them, I'm guessing white holes must expel everything that's in them. The background is an iPhone shot if an IKEA cloud lamp, the man is a shot of someone jumping on a trampoline. Processed in Alien Sky, Lightroom, PS, Nik, and every other filter, plug-in and texture I could get my hands on.
A beautiful sunset over Lake Norman a few weeks ago. There had been a long period of rainy and overcast days for weeks and this was the first time seeing sunlight and boy was it a great show. It was extremely windy on the lake that day but worth every minute. This was taken at Ramsey Creek Park in Cornelius NC.
