Cheri Lucas is this week’s challenger at WordPress. She dares us to share a photo that means Solitary to us.

Well, this little chap is bravely walking forward on his spindly legs. Forever going nowhere. Alone in an empty, cloudy land, holding his tiny torn umbrella in a futile attempt to find shelter from wind and rain. Solitary.

What a fun find! Perfect representation of the theme. S/He is welcome to come and hang out at my house.
A sweet offer, Kate, but I think he prefers the outdoors
I love this. What a great sense of humor.
Isn’t he cute?
Hi Marion,
As there hasn’t been a new WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge so far this week, perhaps you’d like to join in the Weekly Travel Theme http://wheresmybackpack.com/2012/09/28/travel-theme-foliage/ xxx Ailsa
Working on a post as we speak. Thanks so much for inviting me, Ailsa
Love it – it is like something out of a Tim Burton movie!!
He’s a funny dude, right?
He’s done everything from James & the Giant Peach to Edward Scissorhands… I was thinking the Nightmare before Christmas: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107688/ Clever, but a little dark… He’s married to Helena Bonham Carter, Harry Potter’s Bellatrix LeStrange…
I meant the creature in the picture as ‘funny dude’
And I would never dream of calling Tim Burton that, hehehe, an interesting and very creative man. Thanks so much for these details.

This is cool Mar … I am a bit sceptical about that tiny umbrella though
Not much of a protection, eh

A photo that speaks a thousand words…but, I like your words, too. Very descriptive.
Thank you kindly
Long legged lonely figure enjoying a stroll on his own!
That would have been the perfect title!
Glad I could be of help! I enjoy watching this piece of art! It is catchy!

Hi Marion. What an interesting photograph for the challenge. I like it a lot. Definitely in an existence all its own. I posted on the challenge. Check it out.
While searching for a photo in my files, this creature crept into my mind, waving from above. A special art piece, solitary but happy.
He’s so cute! He looks like he’s enjoying the rain and wind if you ask me!
He was cute indeed, Justine, I kept him company for a while
Nice!!!! When I think of solitary, I think of someone surrounding by people but never unveiling themselves. Walking through an existence that doesn’t exist; shaking millions of hand but never introducing themselves.
That must be a lonely existence, never daring to open up to others. Thanks so much for your special comment.
Will you participate in the challenge too?
Yes, how do I participate???? And what is the goal????
