April 2009 - Castles in the air

The original:

The brief:
The idea of creating a floating piece of land was raised by Scott earlier this week, and it's one that intrigued me.

Of course, the idea of castles in the air has been around for centuries, perhaps most notably realised by Rene Magritte in 1959. His version had a stark, weighty quality that made it all the more surreal; what I'm after is something that looks altogether more plausible.

Your castle is here. Can you make it float? Use as much or as little of the hill as you need. Or, if you prefer, choose your own building.
