This is a photo of the parking garage I went to one late afternoon turned around and looked and found I was the only one in it
Our Daily Challenge - "Empty":
Very different for me, but I'm trying to get out of my box a little more to try new things. I love this antique perfume bottle. It belonged to my grandmother, but I don't know if she ever kept a fragrance in it. I tried several different ways of shooting this and this was my favorite (for today anyway). Set up was on my piano lid in a dark room with a small but powerful flashlight behind the bottle. I used a colored gel over the flashlight. I like it, but you sure can see every imperfection in this old bottle. We're talking OLD...and it shows! lol. I love the geometric patterns.
You may remember this old bottle from this shot in November: www.flickr.com/photos/53354298@N05/6420911867/in/set-7215...

It was cold and windy November morning. Empty beach, no one on the embankment, no shouts, no children laugh. And I thought about the summer that passed away and about the winter that come soon.

It's strange to be almost empty.
Normaly traffic is outstanding and overwhelming, even late night.
This shot taken after a demonstration (maybe is visible somehow, afar), before traffic police allow cars..

Empty Lot is a large geometric sculpture created using scaffolding, a grid of triangular wooden planters, and soil collected from parks across London including Peckham, Haringey and Westminster. Nothing will be planted in the soil, but it will be lit by lamps and watered throughout the six month display. The unpredictable nature of the work, which may grow and change from one week to the next, provokes questions about the city and nature, as well as wider ideas of chance, change, and hope.

So many times we have been alone, in decisions, in moments in life. So many moments in which we have felt emptyness. Even though, these are moments of maximum austerity, and of strength. One must keep on going, even with emptyness, one has to continue, even when a little help is more than desirable. And by going on, even in loneliness, we leave behind what we don't need of ourselves, and little by little, step by step, we become stronger.
Dedicated to all who may feel such emptiness. When you don't feel this emptiness anymore, look back, and you will see yourself, fighting for Life.

Cuántas veces nos habremos encontrado solos, en decisiones, en momentos de la vida. Cuántos momentos en los que hemos sentido un vacÃo. Sin embargo, son momentos de máxima austeridad, y de fortaleza. Hay que seguir, aún con vacÃo, hay con continuar, aún cuando se desea ayuda. Y siguiendo, continuando, incluso en la soledad, abandonamos lo que no es necesario en nosotros mismos, y poco a poco, paso a paso, ganamos fortaleza.
Dedicado a cuantos sientan ese vacÃo. Cuando ya no sintáis ese vacÃo, mirad atrás, y os veréis a vosotros mismos, luchando por la Vida.
The empty mold of a Cicada. The insect itself was long gone leaving behind the empty casing at Potong Pasir.

In the early hours of Wednesday 11 November 2020 a cement train came off the track passing through Platform 1 of Sheffield Station. Thursday evening, recovery begins by emptying the cement from the overturned wagon.
The grocery store was jam packed this morning. They're predicting 8 to 10 inches of snow followed by several days of sub zero temperatures, so everybody was stocking up. I'm not sure why these shelves are so empty. They don't contain milk or bread. Personally, I came to stock up on chocolate!

This is the Eagle's nest but no one was home.. Notice the post and brace on the big limb that is holding the nest.. Evidently the nest has gotten so large that it is putting too much strain on the major limb holding the nest... There is a nest that was rescued and treated on exhibit in the Education Building at the Jackson Bottom Wetland Preserve in Hillsboro.. That one fills a room so they aren't small...
The Altiplano (Spanish for high plain), in west-central South America, where the Andes are at their widest, is the most extensive area of high plateau on earth outside of Tibet. Lake Titicaca is its best known geographical feature.
At the end of the Pleistocene epoch, the entire extent of the Altiplano was covered by the vast Lake Ballivián. Remnants are Lake Titicaca, straddling the Peru–Bolivia border, and Poopó, a salt lake that extends south of Oruro, Bolivia. Salar de Uyuni, locally known as Salar de Tunupa, and Salar de Coipasa are two large dry salt flats formed after the Altiplano paleolakes dried out.
The term Altiplano is sometimes used to identify the altitude zone and the type of climate that prevails within it: it is colder than that of the tierra fria but not as cold as that of the tierra helada. Scientists classify the latter as commencing at an elevation of approximately 4,500 meters. Alternate names used in place of altiplano in this context include puna and páramos.

We took the backward route from Tupiza northwards to the Reserva Nacional de Fauna Andina Eduardo Avaroa and further to Salar de Uyuni salt plain; snow-covered volcanoes at the horizon line, red-coloured rocks and sand, a few lost peaceful towns, and slow 4WD journey through the land of thin air - that's Altiplano...
