The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Hello there, welcome to another Monday morning post from The Cosmic Photo Challenge, this week brought to you by the prompt; From the inside.

As I sat in the shed with my coffee on Saturday morning, looking at the grey sky and listening to the rain dripping off the trees onto the roof, I realise I could draw my inspiration from the view right in front of me.

So I made these optical oddities.

Time to show us what drew your eye this week…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Good evening, I hope your Friday is winding down acceptably.

Before we get to today’s prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge I’d like to make a small announcement…

*ahem*

Today (August 6th) is those lovely people at Bandcamp’s fee waiver day, when for one day only ALL proceeds from sales go to the artists.

So if you’re browsing my back catalogue of original material* and find something you like, you can be happy in the knowledge that The Man won’t be taking his slice of my (very reasonably priced) pie.

Thank you for your attention.

*listen for free on Bandcamp (free remix album also available)

So, to the theme for Monday’s post, I’d like you to please provide images based on the prompt; From the inside.

As ever, interpret that however you wish and we’ll all see what we came up with after the weekend, which I hope brings you inspiration, recreation and relaxation in equal measure.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week, I asked you to provide us with some images to illustrate the prompt; A room with a view.

I decided it was unfair that all the best views are from the inside, looking out, so…

How did your captures from the weekend shape up? Let everyone have a look, it’s easy when you know how…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

I do apologise, even for me this is a late prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, so let’s make it a quick one; A room with a view.

Spin that however you wish and come back to show us all what you captured on Monday. Have a great weekend and I’ll see you on the other side.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Hi there, welcome to Monday and also to The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which this week is all about what happens when you; Drain the colours.

I chose to showcase the *lack of* beautiful colours of some of the flowers in the garden.

But before that…

…I have been posting my challenge photos on Photo Sans Frontieres on Facebook, where I have recently encouraged group members to get involved. Well I am happy to say that this week I can include a fabulous shot of a cast-off dragonfly skin (known as the exuvia) from new member, Clive Wilson.

Now let’s see your monochromatic offerings…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Hello all, I hope your Saturday has been pleasant so far, even if the temperature has dropped somewhat overnight like it has here.

For this week’s theme on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I would like you to capture the brightest, most vivid subjects you can find and then; Drain the colours.

That’s right, strange as it may seem, I want to see some colour in black and white. Convert those hues and pigments into shades of grey and let’s see what creative ideas you come up with.

I’ll leave it up to you to interpret the fine details, enjoy the rest of the weekend and I look forward to seeing the results on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

It was a very fortuitous theme I picked for The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week, since the only place the temperature was bearable over the weekend was; In the trees.

I took Audrey down to Rock Park to meet her friends yesterday morning, taking the opportunity to capture some greenery at the same time as enjoying the much-needed shade. (The somewhat vertiginous effect of a few shots is due to the use of a wide angle lens)

Now let’s see what arboreal delights you found for us to marvel at…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Just about made it for a Friday prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge and it looks like it’s going to be a nice weekend, so for this week’s theme I’ll see you; In the trees.

Let’s all (safely) get out in the sunshine and capture the best nature has to offer in the leaf and branch department, then meet back here on Monday to compare photographic notes, ok?

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For your mission on The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week, I asked you to provide images based on the theme of; Reflections.

The reason I chose this prompt was because I had the dubious pleasure of putting together a large and complicated self-assembly wardrobe in Audrey’s fairly small bedroom last week, which features two equally large mirrored sliding doors.

Anyway, having spent all that time and effort (and swearing) building the thing, I thought I may as well take advantage of the new wall of mirrors to capture some interesting pictures.

Using Audrey’s various small make-up mirrors and her fancy mood lighting, I managed to create some agreeably head-scratching optical puzzles with my one phone and no editing,

Did the weekend catch you in reflective mood, show us your results, don’t be shy…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Full disclosure – I have an ulterior motive for setting the prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week, which nevertheless is simple enough; Reflections.

I know we’ve had a variation on this theme more than once before, but I’m confident there’s still plenty of scope for your creative energies to flow freely and provide us with some stunning photos for Monday’s post.

Have a great weekend and I’ll see you back here to curate and compare your photographic offerings.
