12, hide

Yesterday felt a bit bleak. Probably down to work load. I braved the supermarket but got in a bit of a tizzy over the whole thing.

Everything so surreal!

Sent my final work email at around 9 pm, so the days are long and hard. I wasn't enamoured with any of the photographs I took and hadn't the energy to post.

I don't know about social distancing, but with two elderly parents living alone, one vulnerable son living alone, anther son in London with a girlfriend just moved in to keep him company through this, a sister and brother wanting daily contact and a myriad of friends to stay in contact with, one selfish part of me just wants to go and hide.

I'm posting 24hrs later and in a much better frame of mind. Hello to all of you my 365 friends - I might not be keeping up with all of your posts, but I am thinking of you often.

Take care everyone.





I like the mood in this one. Is it at Priory main lake? I have never seen it from this angle before. fav
Stay well and stay safe

I really like this with the two distinctly different sections. :)

wow. such a beautiful atmospheric image. who knew a fortnight ago that going to the supermarket would feel so risky? i hope our fears will soon pass. so many of us have so much on our plates - at least we are in it together. and looking at the serenity and pleasing composition of this image certainly helps - thank you :)

Beautiful black and white- a cross between serene and moody. You have a lot to think about and to worry about so don't feel bad about keeping up with us- your family comes first! fav

I lost sleep the night before I had to go to the grocery store last week. Such a stressful time. Your image here is so well composed and interesting!

A fabulously atmospheric image. I know what you mean about the supermarket, it really makes me feel a wimp but I hate going anywhere like that at present. I had to take my husband to a hospital appointment earlier in the week, the last place on earth I wanted to be, so glad when they were on time and got us out of there speedily!

Love the harsh black against the softness of the mist.

I love the way your photos match your mood.

Beautiful, very solitary.

This scene definitely conveys a feeling of isolation. Well done.
