Another lazy Monday in the strange, dystopian limbo that is global lockdown and The Cosmic Photo Challenge is here, to brighten your day and take your mind off all the bad news for a few minutes.
Here’s what I came up with after Friday’s prompt suggested we take this week’s photos; Through an opening.
The current isolation measures mean not having any outside space in which to relax would make life almost unbearable, so we’re increasingly grateful for the little oasis of calm in our crazy (and suddenly very small) world.
And that’s where I took my inspiration from yesterday, while sitting in the sunshine of the garden; looking out into the garden, from inside the house at night and capturing the sunshine from inside the shed; looking at the garden, unusually framed in the openings of Audrey’s bedroom window, looking down into a glass candle holder, looking into the entrance of a tiny birdhouse, seeing the nest materials within and looking out at myself through the openings in the clematis’ obelisk-shaped growing frame.
So that’s the opening salvo in this week’s challenge, let’s have a look at what you lot’ve got for us…

Thank you, I’m glad you like them.
I have never used anything but my phone, for everything; photography, animation, writing (including my published fiction), blogging, making music, video editing, literally everything I do.
I have never owned a computer or a “real” camera.

What is Huawei? Is it the really expensive one? I haven’t heard of it but I do know someone told me one day when I asked about his phone was that it was a different expensive one.

I like the opening view into the birdhouse and the final arrangement of a surprisingly different view through each part of that one window.

That growing frame made me think of a Dalek.
I went with a few birds and mammals photographed out of various vehicle windows:
