Castles In The Sky

This castle in the sky photograph can illustrate the concept of impossible flights of fantasy and lack of reality in dreams and aspirations. It casts sits atop a steep slap of rock thrusting into the clouded sky with drifting clouds and mist floating by. Call it a castle, a Cathedral or a fortress, this building has a view of all the surrounding lands and is a fitting place to illustrate day dreams and fantasy imaginings of creative individuals everywhere.

Impregnable Fortress And Safe Haven

This fortress looming above at the top of a pinnacle of stone makes an impregnable fortress. Obviously built for defense this castle can serve as a visual metaphor for protection whether it be from physical attack, cyber attacks and hackers, or mental and social intrusions and probes. One could live in total isolation, untouchable and safe from all forms of unwanted attention. This can be a picture of a firewall, of security measures and of safe haven or harbor in a digital age. Want to get away from it all...this is the place where solitude and safety reign supreme!

Passwords, Protection And Metaphor

This is an image of passwords, protection, and a visual metaphor for all forms of security measures. It can be used to advertise protective services, or to add impact to editorial messages about security and safety issues. At first glance we marvel at the ingenuity and determination to build such a fortress in such an inhospitable and difficult location but soon realize that despite the apparent reality it must be a visual trick of Photoshop magic. Indeed it is. The palace in question is made from parts photographed in India, as is the mountain itself. The sky was photographed on the island of Bonaire...and Photoshop is the tool I used to put it all together. There is plenty of copy space and the image lends itself well to all manner of cropping from vertical to square to horizontal. It is also a quick read at thumbnail sizes making it great for web and Internet use.
