Tiny House in a Landscape

This week’s Tiny House in a Landscape was taken by a fellow tiny house enthusiast Hugh Wolfe. Hugh has become a friend via the Tiny House Blog Google+ social network. I have discovered that Hugh and I share some common interests. Hugh is a very good photographer and enjoys shooting old buildings in Texas where he lives. I also enjoy photography. Hugh also is a Mini Cooper buff and enjoys driving his while out shooting pictures. I am a big Mini fan and have the car on my wish list. Anyway, enough of that and back to today’s photo. Although it is not a house but a barn, I think it can provide us with inspiration.

Hugh says: Late Saturday afternoon I was headed home from a day of shooting and spotted this Lilliputian barn off to the left up on a small rise with nothing around it except for a few trees. After having a look at the original I decided to experiment with NIK Softwares Silver Efex Pro 2 converting to B&W and then selectively adding in color.

I’ll have to make another visit soon as I’d like to catch the morning light from the opposite side. For those interested here is the location per Google Maps, 33.342473,-96.809085, just north west of Celina, Texas.

Thanks Hugh for sharing these photographs. Please continue to take more.

Cae Mabon

The Cae Mabon Retreat Centre in North Wales has been building small, natural dwellings for their residents and visitors since 1989. This intentional community is located in the best of what nature can offer: in the woods, by a river, near a lake, at the foot of the mountains and within sight of the sea.

Cae Mabon’s principal creator is Eric Maddern, who was inspired to create the community after spending time with the Aboriginal people in Alice Springs, Australia. He wanted to create a place that was not the ostentatious beauty of the wealthy but the humble beauty of the simple and natural. The buildings he created are mostly made from timber, stone, reed, straw, grass, lime and clay and they blend in with their surroundings.
