A tiny watch cog casting a sundial like shadow. Wanted to portray singular isolation, but together we’ll get through this!
Love it when the shadow theme comes round, it was the 1st theme I shot an MM photo for many years back!
(The cog is approx 4mm thus well within the size guide)
HMM!
If you look carefully you can see The Red Cottage in a very remote part of Glen Dee in the Scottish Highlands, which is now being renovated to a Bothy. It is miles from anywhere in this desolate landscape, remote from anyone and anything.
This is a Tabaiba bush (Euphorbia balsamifera) that is distributed from the Arabian Peninsula to Sahara and the Canary Islands. This one is from Tenerife.
The small bush has only few leaves which are sesonal and disappear during the long and dry summers. It has a single yellow flower at the end of its many stems. The plant is popular due to its latex. Its sap was used as a natural glue or as a chewing gum to clean the teeth.

Macro Mondays theme In Ice
A simple image of a frozen snow drop.
I experimented with various ideas until I gave I up. The trouble with ice is that it has a tendency to melt and by the time you get to a subject or composition that you like it's all over and gone.
After a few days of messing around and sad news coming in that my Godmother had been taken gravely ill with the virus, I found this solitary snow drop that I had frozen last week. It seemed quite apt under the circumstances.
This photo is dedicated to all those who have lost loved ones to this awful virus.

[The width of the ice cube is 3cm, the overall image is around 7cm and within the MM requirements.]
Another on the theme of social isolation during lockdown. This shot was taken last November in Lanzarote. Oh to be there now!!!!
Each winter I try to drive past this old vacant garage on a cold, blustery winter day as its lonesomeness is emphasized. It is a unique time in life when we reach an age when many of our peers begin to leave this planet. Our once large circle of family, friends and acquaintances begins slowly to dwindle and then accelerates with every passing year. The isolation that faces those whose partners have departed becomes one of life's greatest challenges.
Lyrics (Wave by Beck)
"I move away from this place
In the form of a disturbance
And enter into the world
Like some tiny distortion
If I surrender
And I don't fight this wave
I won't go under
I'll only get carried away
Wave
Wave
Wave
Isolation
Isolation
Isolation
Isolation"

Freedom or isolation?
Taken looking towards Weybourne from Salthouse beach, Norfolk, England. In the distance can be seen the old coastguard lookout at Sheringham and the coastguard cottages at Weybourne. A pillbox can also be seen along the beach.
There are people who take a folding chair, a thermos of coffee and cake to the dike and can wander for hours into the distance. If wild geese disturb the peace, it is also a welcome change.
Es gibt Menschen, die nehmen sich einen Klappstuhl, eine Thermoskanne Kaffe und Kuchen mit zum Deich und können Stunden lang in die Ferne schweifen. Wenn dann noch Wildgänse die Ruhe stören ist es auch willkommene Abwechslung.
Stripped of its companion buildings as well as its original purpose, a barn stands isolated. Meanwhile, a busy world passes it by without much regard. One of life's challenges as we age is to fight the sense of isolation and the lack of purpose once the activity of raising children and fulfilling a career no longer occupies our days.
