Welcome to another edition of Photo Friday.
♦♦♦♦♦
SOLITUDE:
Solitude can be a time to enjoy some peace and quiet, to revel in one’s own thoughts, but sometimes, it can also be lonely and sad.

Great photos Love number 3! It is funny how so many of us love solitude while traveling.
Beautiful pics Debbie 🙂 I love solitude 🙂 It lets me enjoy ‘Me’ time which is definitely my favorite 🙂
Love how you show three faces of solitude. Cachuma Lake looks beautiful.
Hi Suzy; Glad you liked the photos. 🙂 Cachuma Lake was a stop on my solitary road trip up the California coast. Gorgeous scenery all along there. Thanks for visiting.
These pics on solitude are awesome. Of course, pet lover that I am, I am particularly drawn to number 3!
Hi Michelle; Yes, Murphy is such a cutie! 🙂 Thanks for visiting.
Beautiful captures! Great take on the prompt ‘solitude’ 🙂 Esp loved the second click!
The second one was taken on a solitary road trip up the California coast. Fantastic scenery there! 🙂 Thanks for visiting.
Beautiful photos! ♥ I especially liked the lonely road!
Hi Kathy; Yes, I think that one really conveys “solitude” the most. Glad you enjoyed the photos and thanks for visiting. 🙂
Gorgeous photos, Debbie. Very nice “solitude” captures!
Thanks for visiting, Laurel. Glad you enjoyed the photos. 🙂
Lovely photos. Nothing like an empty winding road stretching out in front of you to get that lonely feeling. Beautiful lake and mountains photo. Aw, what a cute pooch waiting for someone to come join him.
Sometimes I crave solitude and don’t feel lonely. Love time to myself. Other times I do get lonely and want people around. Strange how I have those two sides to my character. Being an introvert is like that, I guess.
Hi Cathy; I think most of us have both sides, to varying degrees and consider myself an “extroverted introvert”. 🙂 As an only child I learned to enjoy my own company early in life but love to socialize as well. Glad you enjoyed the photos. Thanks for visiting and have a great week!
Great photos. I love solitude and alone, but am very rarely lonely … as long as the sun is shining. Gray skies like your road photo make me grateful I have Hub in the car with me!
I feel the same way, Sammy. 🙂 Hubby was actually driving, while I took the photo. Typical Fall weather in Northern Ontario. Cheers!
Sweet. Love the doggie!
The water in Cachuma Lake is so blue it’s almost unreal. Would love to visit one day.
That was such a spectacular view, I just had to stop and take some photos. 🙂 This was taken during my solitary road trip from San Diego to Santa Maria, where I got to meet our very own ♥Mom♥, Chi Chi. Thanks for dropping in and have a good weekend.
I went to Cachuma Lake as a kid being born and raised in the Central Valley! The adorably cute kid does look lonely 🙁 But, I know his/her mommy/daddy didn’t let that last long 🙂
HI Mike; I didn’t know you were a native Californian. 🙂 Cachuma Lake was a stop on my solitary road trip from San Diego to Santa Maria. I was was driving up to visit a friend and loved the whole experience. Ventura Highway, baby! 😀 One day, hubby and I want to fly to San Francisco, then drive ALL the way down. Such spectacular scenery. Little Murphy wasn’t alone for long, but I thought the expression on his face was comical. Thanks for visiting and I hope you and Phoenix have a fabulous weekend.
