Sunrise had been and gone very quickly that morning. I wanted to try and capture the isolation of the tiny hotel set against the bulk of the mountains - looking through the only colour to be found in a monochrome world. Hope you like it.
Beautiful but remote one of my lucky days no rain on Rannoch moor with the mountains of Glencoe in the background.(Scotland)
Another phone shot - a bit wonky (it was sooooo windy)! I'm finding opportunity limited to get out with canon lately - hope these suffice!!
Just a shame (for me!) that it's a modern-looking bungalow rather than a traditional Northumberland stone cottage :)

An old fence post slowly is losing its battle to the erosion of salt and water. Reflected sunset light across the water provides a colorful backdrop.
The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the shot.
Lost in the Sepia
of my mind's cruel landscape
Sand and broken fences

under ominous skies
Frozen isolation
One sole bird trapped within

I have always been influenced by the art of George Tooker.
His rendering the psychology of isolation we all experience in the metropolis.
Infused with unease we each keep to ourself.

The red lights remind my wife of John Marin's "street movement NY" 1932 with it's dynamism, forward tilt, and sparkle.

Precariously perched on a rock pillar in the Westman Islands in Iceland, the Þrídrangaviti lighthouse is arguably the most isolated lighthouse in the world. The structure, sitting some 120ft above the raging North Atlantic sea was built in 1939 (without the use of helicopters), which makes imagining how they ever built this place, even more impossible.

Taken on an evening drive through the Howgill Fells in Cumbria. This beautiful stone cottage sat on a ridge in apparent isolation from the rest of the world. I wondered what it would be like to live in such quiet.
We are born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Everything in-between is a gift.- quote by Yul Brynner
The architecture with the grid elements and clear borders reminded me of the current Corona motto: social isolation.
