stopped for a light

on an empty road

autumn nightfall

floots said...: This is desolate and comforting at the same time. Perhaps shared experience is always consoling in some way? Next time I'm driving up Glen Drynoch in the dark I'll know I've got company.
Cheers; 11:14 AM
Bill said...: Thanks floots. "Desolate" and "comforting"make an arresting combination.; 7:20 PM
Patry Francis said...: Yes, the combination of the empty road, and the light, I think is what makes it at once lonely and safe.

An arresting combination indeed.; 8:36 PM
Bill said...: Thanks, Patry. The memory of the absolutely uneventful moment on which this is based haunts me. Maybe that came through.; 11:49 AM
