One of the most dramatic locations in Iceland for photography is the headland of Dyrhólaey which sits above the black volcanic beaches near Vík on the southern coast of Iceland.
This little sea-stack is called Kambur and it sits in splendid isolation (although it has a few other seastack friends further around the headland) in the Atlantic ocean. All of the seastacks were formed in a submarine eruption about 80-100,000 years ago.
"Dyrhólaey is a promontory with steep cliffs that extend into the sea, the highest elevation of 115 m being on the west. Three gaps pass through Dyrhólaey at water level. One is much larger than the others, and boats of up to 30 tons can pass through it. The island was formed by a volcanic eruption 100 thousand years ago. Háidrangur is the highest (56 m) of the sea stacks off Dyrhólaey and has very steep sides. Lundadrangur is unique, as it is possible to row a boat through an opening into a pool inside. This pillar of rock can be scaled “from the inside”. Mávadrangur is the sea stack farthest from land, while those closest to the shore, west of the island, are called Kambur and Litlidrangur. There are large colonies of sea birds on the sea stacks and cliffs of Dyrhólaey. A lighthouse was built on the promontory in 1910, and the present structure, dating from 1927, has the largest lens of any lighthouse in Iceland. For the centuries, boats were launched from Dyrhólaey when people still rowed out to sea to fish. Dyrhólaey is a protected area under the nature conservation act."

View On Black You need to see this in black or large-there's a wonderful little cabin way back in the photo.....I think it's so wonderful to have a place right there.
An isolated tree in the surf enjoys a gentle morning current. This tree, once filled with vibrance is now stripped of life. Even so, it's more beautiful than ever as it reaches up from the waters that will deliver its inevitable doom.

A fog bank hangs over Bear Lake, Idaho just off the end of a boat dock. The slightly diagonal line that looks like a shoreline is actually the edge of the fog.
This photo was taken just a few feet away, and 90 degrees from the previous photo of Bear Lake.
I was walking in downtown Austin on the last day of the celebration for the F1 race. There were lots of festivities and promotional events and I thought this young lady walking around in a plastic bubble was pretty interesting.
Isolation-- I don't want to sit on a lemon tree
I'm at times a very introverted person. At other times I'm a bit more extroverted, but nevertheless, I'm an introvert by definition. This doesn't mean that I'm shy or always quiet, although I can be, but it's more that I love being on my own, living in my own world, watching others rather than interacting. I love going out and spending time with friends, and I do regularly, but at the end of the day there is nothing I want more than to go somewhere by myself, or to go sleep in my own bed. "You are you who you are when no one is looking" couldn't be truer. I'm not a fake version of me around others, I'm just a slightly more reserved one. If I know someone doesn't care for a topic, I won't bring it up. If I know they don't like a type of music, I won't play it. I strive to keep others happy because it in turn makes me feel relaxed and happy, but after a long day, I want to go home and play anything I want and talk to myself abut anything I want! Personally, I love isolation just as much as I love company, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it!
Unless society can adapt itsbehaviour sufficiently for a short period of time, the COVID problems will only continue.
Plaça dels Angels, Barcelona. In tyhe middle of a major viral outbreak. Because of the failure to block viral transmission and the failure to implement and deploy functional track-and-trace, this winter is going to be far far bleaker than it needs to be.
"In fear every day, every evening,
he calls her aloud from above.
Carefully watched for a reason,
painstaking devotion and love.
Surrendered to self preservation,
from others who care for themselves.
A blindness that touches perfection,
but hurts just like anything else.
Isolation, isolation, isolation....
But if you could just see the beauty,
these things I could never describe,
these pleasures a wayward distraction,
this is my one lucky prize:
Isolation, isolation, isolation...."

Totally isolated Black Mesa and Lake Powell acts as a steel railed conveyor belt hustling coal across northern Arizona. Here an empty man returns to the mine crossing one of the many fills along the line and a rather interesting underpass.
With a TTARTISAN 35mm f1.4, Tilt lens.
Stopped down, this shot gives you an idea of how the lens can be used to isolate people down a chosen plane of focus.
I've just posted a YouTube video of this lens if you're interested, here:

We're afraid to be alone
Everybody got to have a home
Isolation
You're just a human, a victim of the insane
We're afraid of everyone
Afraid of the sun
Isolation

The worst form of punishment.
