The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, we’re all doing our own thing, because the prompt was; Freestyle.

I didn’t capture anything new at the weekend, mostly because of the horrible weather yesterday, so I decided to combine elements of 12 previous shots to create an artwork of composite imagery. See if you can spot them all.

Behold my radical redesign of Exeter cathedral.

Now it’s time for you to share your talents with the rest of the class, so, who’s first..?

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.


I set the theme for The Cosmic Photo Challenge on Saturday, hoping the weather would still be playing ball on Sunday evening, because the prompt was; At the end of the day.

Lucky for me it was a beautiful weekend, so my trip to Instow beach yesterday turned out to be just in time to catch the start of an almost perfect sunset.

I also captured some more star trails last night, which I thought I’d include as a bonus photo, despite the two and a half hour exposure technically just overrunning into this morning.

What did you see that was worth shooting this week, don’t be shy, let’s all have a look…

For this week’s theme on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I’ve resigned myself to asking for images of; A wet weekend.

Yes, rather predictably the weather has decided to be uncooperative for this short break from the working week (or possibly slightly longer if you’re in America – Happy Independence Day to y’all, by the way) so we’ll go with what we’ve got and hope for the best.

See you on Monday for a show and tell of elemental proportions. Until then, stay safe and keep on keeping on.

K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For this week on K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge I asked you all to Showcase yourself and give us some of your greatest hits to inspire our collective creativity.

I chose to follow my own suggestions; I searched through the last twelve of months of photos to see what jumped out at me; picked another shot which I’ve always been really pleased with and added a few others that fall broadly into the “mucking about” category.

The image from this year that caught my eye wasn’t a hugely spectacular or technically complicated one, but the composition is nicely balanced and it’s a great shot of Audrey from one of our cycling/photography outings in the summer.

I have taken a lot photos of birds in flight, capturing action shots of gulls and ducks feeding at our local wildfowl reserve, which is where I took this second picture a few years ago and it’s one I am still rather proud of.

Which brings us to a more adventurous form of the photographic art; my experiments with digital editing and manipulation from over the years.

Try not to have nightmares…

K’lee’s selection is bound to be simply the best and is now HERE for your perusal.

But now we’d love to see what you have cherry picked from your archives for us.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Saturday means prompt day on K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge (if I’m really honest) and today it’s my turn to choose the theme.

I’ve decided to go with another quiz-esque challenge this week and I’m asking you all to make a; Say what you see montage.

You know, a set of photos which describe a phrase or saying, only you have to provide the photos.

So let’s see what you can come up with to puzzle us on Monday.

I know, I know, I’m late again, but this time I can plead extenuating circumstances; it’s K’lee’s turn to provide the prompt this week and he has yet to post anything, so I’m going to go out on a limb and say he forgot.

Nevertheless, I will gladly step into his prompting shoes for the week and give you a substitute theme to inspire you.

As I am currently sat in the glorious sunshine in the garden, I’ll make it easy and give you; Leaf and bud to play with for the remainder of the weekend.

Meet back here on Monday, ok?

*edit: K’lee has since posted a prompt, which you can find here if you’d like to have a choice of themes.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

This weekend’s prompt for K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge is brought to you by K’lee and he’s gone for a trilogy of themes from past challenges; The beauty of wood, the gleam of metal and the reflection of glass.

So let’s see what you come up with on Monday, after a weekend of photographic inspiration.

Ok, it’s another late one, because I had to wait for K’lee to post before I knew what the theme was, (that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it) but I’m here now and I bring news of this week’s prompt for K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

K’lee has chosen one of his more enigmatic suggestions and gone with; The Stillness and the Light, which you can of course interpret any way you see fit.
