The ‘Fort de la Chartreuse’, which dominates the Amercœur neighborhood of Luik in Belgium, was built between 1817 and 1823 to defend the city.
The fort is built on a strategic height that dominates the valley of the Meuse, which had been occupied by a Carthusian (Ordre des Chartreux) monastery until the French Revolution. The fort was built by the Dutch, who at the time administered southern Belgium.
The fort was abandoned as a fortification by the military in 1891 and was thereafter used as a barracks. From 1914 to 1918 the Germans used it as a prison, and again from 1940 to 1944.
In 1944-1945 it was used by the Americans as a military hospital. The Belgian army left the site in 1988.

Found this old abandoned house on a farm nearby Calgary... I took some pictures with the owners permission... I'd reckon close to 75 pictures... Plus some skunk avoidance... Plus avoiding birds flying out of the building... There were some fabulous textures here (inside and out)... I could only photograph the interior from the doorway as it was too unsafe to go inside...

Had a really busy morning at work, then a late-ish lunch, and then hurried home to go to a Dr's appointment (my 40+ health check). Came away with a pneumonia vaccination; bonus!
Worked from home after that, and failed to take any decent photos - though I kind of like the light in this one, even with our slightly failed double glazing which has gone all hazy. I do love this view of the tree from our living room.
Aguereberry Point, Death Valley.
You can still sense the presence of Pete Aguereberry in the wind here.
[cue lonely wind FX]
Then I heard something else. And it wasn't Pete. I followed it.
Cautiously, stuck my head in the door from whence it came. And saw this...
"HELP ME!!!" Mickey cried, his voice oddly muffled. He was flapping his arms frantically. How he did that inside a window frame, I'm wasn't quite sure.
"GET ME OUT!!!" his oddly muffled voice became more frantic.
I moved my fingers in the usual pattern required of this type of spell breaker, quietly spoke the couple of words that went with them and Mickey fell out of the frame and onto the floor. Plop!.
He was clearly freaked out - and jetted out the door just as fast as you'd imagine a freaked out mouse would. He was talking nonsense and I didn't quite get the whole story... something about a wizard, a mousetrap and a ghost named Pete.
Weird.

...cobbled together from an ugly old bookshelf and windowframe (no hinges, I just lift it off when it's sunny). I had to set it up on the spindly tables in order to let it get more sunlight.

I'd forgotten about these three shots from early 2011, which arguably make up one of my top-3 photographic experiences. This is strange to say because its such a simple, silly, random, and ordinary happening... but I still smile about it.
I was on a roadtrip with 2 gals that were strangers the night before, ridesharing from Brisbane to Melbourne. This was a quick stop for petrol and food in Newcastle and a short wander about. We'd just ordered a bunch of sushi takeaway and my arms were full holding it and other groceries as we walked back to the car. We passed this little shop and this fella was pulling out his Holga to take a window shot which I realized after we'd just cleared storefront. I sudden stopped, pleaded to Saskia to take everything from my arms, which she did I guess because I said it so emphatically (might have yelled "pleeeease hurry!"). I reached into my deep pocket and pulled out my little Rioch GRDIII and bound back into the window just as he was framing. He saw me and looked up and smiled and started laughing. So did I. We exchange a few "thumbs-up" and points-to-the-flowers and pointing to one another and we snapped the last frame in unison. Huge grins again. I pocketed my camera, waved at him, no words, while the two girls laughed. Saskia asked "did you get it" and I said "heck yes - that was awesome."
And that was that. No idea who the guy was but I hope someday he maybe finds this photo triptych here online. :) It still makes me happy.
Cheers!

For the macro monday group theme "framed" This is some rusty old antiques reflected in some stacked, peeling window frames....hence...framed
Work has finally started on the 2 hectare (5 acre) former Carlton and United Brewery site, to be developed into RMIT University’s Design Hub by 2011, at the top end of the CBD. On the south-west corner are the bluestone bones of one of the original buildings. Normally it’s boarded up, but on this visit the open window frames provided an interesting glimpse inside. And it was easy to shoot around the bars on the windows when necessary. (NB: I only had a 50mm lens on me, so I had to make do!)
This photo shows the security bars and paint peeling off the windows frame, Bouverie St facade.

A young boy in a farmhouse in Vietnam taking a break from his studies. His books are on a desk just below the window fame. The room was extremely dark thus, he used the natural light from his barred window to illuminate his study material.
Nobody knows what caused the stain but we all dislike it!

I love this sentiment from Neat & Tangled but I wanted to use the llamas from MFT for this card so I could use the same die cut window for both of my DD's Christmas cards. The background was inked using Distress Inks and the llamas and cacti were colored with Copic markers. TFL!
Supplies:
Fa La Llama (Neat & Tangled)
Llama Love (MFT)
Window Frame (Simply Stampin)

I wanted to commemorate the 2012 London Olympics but in a way that I could incorporate my love of 'interiors' as well as being free to indulge in the use of colour and design. This representational series allows me to be as creative as I want and has given me plenty of ideas for the future. My intention is to draw the viewer in, keep them amused and able to find more each time they look.
Not much going on here. And I've been so lazy with uploads... Oops! I've been taking the shots just taking a while to edit and upload them.

The Men's sanatorium at Beelitz-Heilstatten.
This vast hospital complex near Berlin dates back to 1898, and was a German military hospital during World War I. In 1916 Adolf Hitler was infamously treated here, after being wounded in the leg during the Battle of the Somme.
In 1945 the complex was occupied by Soviet forces, and remained a Soviet military hospital until 1995, well after German reunification.
Most of the vast sprawling complex now lies empty and decaying…

Another stupidly busy day, but I just about got everything done that I needed to before going on leave. I also went to the Doctor's mid-morning, to have a couple of moley things removed from my shoulder. Pleasantly surprised how little it hurt when the anaesthetic wore off, and very glad to have finally had that done.
It was another day of wild weather, but the rain eased off this afternoon and the sun lit up our dining room. I like the way the mirrored doors on a couple of our shelves reflected the light back on the window frame - matches the pattern of the clouds quite well, I think.
Happy to finish work this evening and have a super relaxing evening with Tim, snuggled under a blanket and catching up on trashy TV.

So. I'm in my house, and I can smell wood burning. For like an hour. During this time, I'm wandering around, looking in heat vents, wondering if the kids have dropped something down there... checked the furnace... all the levels of the house. Nothing. Then I go up to my bedroom and it's stronger. Look around, don't see anything. Back downstairs. But then it's stronger so I go back up, and as I'm walking into the room I can see the windowframe beside my desk *smoking* and um, it's not really supposed to be doing that. So I have a double-sided makeup mirror that my brother and his girlfriend bought me for Christmas, which was on the desk. And was apparently focused right at the right angle to reflect the sun into the wooden (unpainted) molding around the window, hence causing it to catch FIRE. Fire, people! It burned right through the molding and burned and melted part of the plastic window casing, and the insulation underneath. I am so very lucky I was home. Seriously.
Also? We were just last night watching some episodes of Modern Family on DVD (which is really hilarious if you haven't seen it) and one of them, the parents discover a burn mark on the sofa, which they accuse the kids of smoking and causing but turns out to be from a mirrored Christmas ornament shining on the furniture. And they notice it when they walk into the room and the sofa is smoking. When this happened LAST NIGHT on a SITCOM my husband laughed and says "that's exactly the kind of stuff that happens to you all the time!" And it so is. And LOOK!!! Jeebus.
