The best houses are those built in the clouds.
This is mostly a traditional house, with some modern touches. Most houses are thrown up in a few weeks. They are cookie-cutter houses, all built from pre-made parts. But this one? I watched them slowly build this up over the course of a year using top-quality material. It must have cost the owners a small fortune.
When I took this photo, I was just trying to capture the top half of the house and the cool clouds. However, upon processing it I was immediately reminded of Castle in The Sky, the fantastic Miyazaki film. What do you think?
