This may be my entry into the Isolation contest. Sorry for the "punny" title. The lonely tree on this hilltop lends me to believe it may fit the category of isolation. B/W seemed to enhance the loneliness. Thanks for looking and your comments.

Very nice image of the lonely place Doug. The B/W makes it look even lonelier.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.

Bare naked tree with the mountain looking on, is about as isolated as it gets Gibbs.
I will go out on a limb and congratulate you early.

Doug - And to think, the tree has no idea of the beautiful scenery it joins. I agree with you, that b/w enhances the isolation and loneliness. Thad

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
