The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Happy Monday, y’all, welcome to a hue-heavy edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I hope you are suitably rested for the week ahead and enjoyed your time off.

But before the tedious business of work gets in the way again, let’s get to the important stuff

With barely a break in the grim and miserable weather at the weekend, I had to rely on a few shots I took on last week’s walk, reedited to fit the prompt; A splash of colour.

What coloured your world this week? Time to show us whatcha got…

An especially wet, grey and uninspiring start to the weekend makes me want to set a simple, bright and cheerful theme for The Cosmic Photo Challenge today, so I’m going to ask for your contributions to once again feature; A Splash of colour.

Not much explanation required for that one, so just have fun with it and I’ll see you on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

When I set the theme for The Cosmic Photo Challenge on Friday, I was fully expecting to have a couple of frosty mornings to go with the prompt; The first breath of Winter.

But as usual the English weather didn’t cooperate, (not that I’m complaining on this occasion) and yesterday was a lovely sunny day to take a walk along the opposite side of the River Taw for a change.

I followed the Tarka Trail cycle path, under the tall road bridge I walked over two weeks ago, down to the flood plain, where the receding tide and calm water made for some excellent reflections.

What did you find to impress us with at the weekend? Come on, it’s time to show ‘n’ tell…

Another week has flown by and it’s once again time to provide you with your theme for The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I know we only covered autumnal images recently, but I’m setting today’s prompt because I’ve already detected; The first breath of Winter.

{I know, I know, some of you are in the topsy turvy land of almost-Summer, in which case you may wish to illustrate that particular seasonal transition instead}

Wherever you are, I hope you have a great weekend and we’ll all meet back here on Monday for a photographic get together, ok?

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Welcome to The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I hope any Halloween celebrations you had went well over the weekend. As the UK heads back into lockdown the eldritch atmosphere continues just a little longer, to encompass the theme of; Spooky.

There was no trick or treating for Audrey to partake of this year, but it didn’t stop her doing some strange makeup experiments, which I (un)naturally documented…

…all of which paranormal portraiture inspired me to capture some strange selfies of my own.

What did you find to creep us out on this cold November day..?

Ooh, look at me being early with the prompt for a change.

I know Monday’s post on The Cosmic Photo Challenge will be a day late for Halloween, but I’m going to stick with the theme anyway and ask for your contributions to be; Spooky.

So capture some atmospheric images to give us all the creeps to start the week and have a great weekend whatever you’re up to.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

On Friday for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you to provide your own interpretation of my inspiration; Vertical.

I have taken a very loose guide from the prompt; capturing images on a short walk yesterday morning which are either of vertical things, from vertical things, or at a vertical angle, plus a bit of creative mucking about.

Walls, walking, fences, bridges, hedges and selfies, it’s amazing what you can squeeze out of a simple one word theme.

Where did the directions lead you over the weekend?

Come on, I’ve shown you mine, now show me yours…

For The Cosmic Photo Challenge this weekend, I’d like you to capture something which illustrates the prompt; Vertical.

No reason, just the first thing that popped into my head.

So get snap happy for Monday’s big reveal and bring some imaginative images to the party to start the week.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Good grief, is it Monday already?
I’m sure I must have fallen through a wormhole from Friday afternoon.

But at least I have your contributions for The Cosmic Photo Challenge to look forward to, themed this week around; Shadowplay.

With no particular ideas in mind and not having been out anywhere over the last couple of days, I found inspiration for my shadowy offerings at home and in the garden.

First these dramatically lit plants in the living room caught my eye…

…and the shadows of forsythia stems which seem to be hanging from the Virginia creeper vine.

But it was when I noticed the possibilities of shadows cast by my two metal fish ornaments that I got really inspired. One hastily-wedged bamboo pole on top of the shed later and I captured these cheery portraits.

After which I created a little aquarium scene…

…and then got rather carried away and made this.

And finally, I have the perfect opportunity to play us out with this classic clip of Joy Division

What did you do in the shadows at the weekend, come on, it’s show and tell time…

Well the days are certainly starting shorten now, so this week’s prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge returns to a theme we’ve had before and asks you to capture; Shadowplay.

Make of that what you will and meet back here in time for Monday’s show and tell.

Have a great weekend whatever you’re doing, I look forward to seeing what inspired images you have for us to start our week.
