With a lockdown in place it is against the rules for me to go to places I like to shoot, so I though I would try to create a series called Isolated creativity. The series is not intended to be a diary but a way of documenting thoughts and emotions via photography.
Without a vaccine or an effective treatment I cannot see how we will return to the way we were before.
I loved this old, ruined homestead and the wonderful fence surrounding it.
I wrote a blog post about this trip in February/March 2022. If you'd like to see some behinds the scene shots, video and read some stories about how I shot these images, take a look.
I love photographing on the Canadian Prairies and I've been travelling there to do so since 2013. If you'd like to see my other Prairie images, feel free to take a look at the album.
Couldn't think of an adequate story to go with this image. I'm drawn back to what it means to me looking at it. All I could think about was this song. It reminds me of my older brother I guess. Perhaps because I sat alone when photographing this scene, watching the darkness envelope these beautiful mountains and wished I wasn't. It brought back memories of many a late night spent with my older brother when we were teens. I took great comfort and trust in our conversations, his advice and opinion. We talked about everything under the sun and I remember many times sitting together and watching the stars rise high in the skies like a million tiny lanterns. It was my brother who also showed me this song before he left for boot camp. Since then we've both grown up and moved to different states but I think of those nights often when I'm up late.
Here's to
starry skies and memories of long nights... to loved ones who were willing to sit with us in both the cover of darkness and in the beauty of light.
Thank you as always for listening to my ramblings...

The farmhouse at the abandoned turkey farm on Poverty Flat, Idaho is surrounded by sagebrush now. When this land was settled much of the sagebrush was probably cleared, but it has taken over the land again. This is the view to the northeast and when you look at this and the other photos I have posted, you can get a good idea of how isolated this place is. The owner of this farm was probably Rodney Ream who raised 10,000 turkeys every year. That doesn't seem possible now.
The last of the three images I shot of this wonderful isolated barn. I know it's a variation on the other two, but I liked all three for different reasons. Which is your favourite? Isolated Barn I, Isolated Barn II or this one?
I wrote a blog post about my springtime Saskatchewan trip that has some behind-the-scenes pics and stories which you might enjoy.

I took this shot over 6 years ago and uploaded it (or one similar) at the time but was reminded of it this week and decided to have a go at reprocessing it.
It was taken with what was probably my least favourite of the Olympus cameras I have owned but I really like the image even though there are some things I would do differently if I could take it again today.
This is Athnamulloch Bothy at the far end of Loch Affric.

This photo comes thanks to our Ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay to Gibson's Landing. A gorgeous sunset over a small and isolated island.

Haven't been out in the snow as much as I'd have liked this year but thoroughly enjoyed it when I could.
We've had bumper levels of snow but it's been very short lived. I was lucky enough to get out on this such day. The snow doing a great job of simplifying a scene down to just the bare essentials.

My third attempt to shoot stars at Den Treek and I finally succeeded!
Just after sunset I arrived at the scene. The sky was clear and it was windstill, which was important for the kind of shot I wanted. I had set up a shot but then the full moon rose above the tree line. It gave me so much front light it was almost like shooting towards the sun.
Because of the moon my shots didn't turn out like I wanted and tried some other compositions to take advantage of the moon, but I wasn't satisfied.
I wanted to shoot away from the moon to make lemonade from the big lemon in the sky. So I followed a small path into the fields, tripped a couple of times in the darkness over dead pieces of wood and hidden ditches, but found this isolated tree. With the moon in the back I managed to shoot two 11 minute shots. The battery died otherwise I would have shot another one. The shots I have are combined into one and I think the result is pretty decent!
I like the simple composition and the arc of the stars. There were some little flowers in the grass in front of the tree you can barely see but I think it is a nice touch.
I would love to read your opinions!
Thunderstorm activity over Adelaide River in the NT build-up to the Wet Season, ten years ago in 2013!
Viewed from Elizabeth River in Archer NT Australia.
Cruising into Bear Trap at the restricted 30 MPH U719 barley misses the sun as an isolated thunderstorm was building to the west. Road construction towards Culver Township ended the chase as they got pretty far ahead.
A walk along a very empty Northumberland beach, it was wet and cold the dog and us loved it .I had my mini tripod with me and that came in useful to focus on the lone Sea shell and and de focus the rest of the beach. I do enjoy isolating a subject such as this .
It surprises me how many images from our Northumberland trip that I have not edited and posted, so while I have been somewhat stuck inside decorating and not had any camera time I can show a few more interspersed with more local recent images .
Finished my painting today just the clearing up to do now but the weather looks grim for the next few days .
Isolated oak tree in the heart of Ashdown Forest. The forest in the background shows autumn colours have mostly been and gone here
An early morning view of the Almerian coastline last Autumn and a lone "camper van" looking isolated, but essentially "free". These days will come back eventually and we will all be free again to get out in the big wide world.
I loved the light on this morning on my way back from a dawn photography trip to nearby Perulico. Great memories and a feeling I"m sure all landscape photographers enjoy from our silly o clock trips!
This is the sum total of all buildings for the Nerlerit Inaat airport and all of the surroundings, with Hurry Inlet and the snow-covered mountains of Liverpool Land in the background, East Greenland.

The Church of the Assumption on Bled Island and it's surroundings.
Bled is an Alpine town alongside glacial Lake Bled in northwestern Slovenia. It is the seat of the Municipality of Bled. It is most notable as a popular tourist destination in the Upper Carniola region and in Slovenia as whole, attracting visitors from abroad, as well.
The famous Lone tree on the edges of Llyn Padarn. Photographed by many and thankfully on the day that i captured this image, no one was about.
ayer me lo pasé bien, salí a ver si pescaba alguna roca solitaria ... volví contento con esta sencilla toma, la verdad no es fácil por aquí aislar elementos …
yesterday I went out to catch a lonely rock, it´s not an easy task here in my area so came back home pleased with this simple one ...
Taken 1200km from the North Pole, from a mountain called Scheteligfjellet near the World's northernmost permanent settlement of Ny Ålesund.
