Still on the Internet, Still a Nobody
A very merry Christmas to you all and best wishes for the new year.
Here is the full set of pictures I took on a Christmas Eve walk around the National Trust’s Watersmeet property on Exmoor, some of which were used for this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge .
For today on The Cosmic Photo Challenge we are going to brave the elements, because; Here comes the rain.
I had to spend much of Saturday (when it really was horrible weather) searching for a new washing machine and driving to and from the launderette, so it wasn’t until yesterday that I got out to take photos.
As you can see from the artistic view out of our living room window, it was really hammering down at one point, but I dodged the worst of the downpours in the park to capture some nice reflections in puddles and the river.
Now let’s see what the prompt precipitated from you this week…

For today’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you to capture your photos; Out in the country.
I nearly lost my gamble with the weather by waiting until Sunday to go out taking pictures, but I managed to dodge the showers for long enough to plod up Codden Hill.
I took in the spectacular views (five counties are visible on a clear day) from the foot of the memorial Jeremy Thorpe erected to his wife, Caroline in 1971, which you can share by watching the short video below.
Where did your search for rural photographic inspiration take you at the weekend?

On The Cosmic Photo Challenge today, we’re; On the coast, or at least immediately adjacent to it in my case.
My intention was to be up early and arrive at any one of several nearby beaches before the hoards of newly-freed Grockles descended for the day, but I didn’t get up in time so I went to Wrafton instead.
A small tributary of the river Taw, the river Caen runs through Braunton and Wrafton is where it joins the Taw estuary before flowing out to sea. The tide was out when I visited, boats stranded on the mud in the baking sunshine, but walking along the Tarka Trail to the riverbank was very pleasant nonetheless.
How was your weekend, what did you capture for us from life on the edge..?

Good morning, I hope your week has started successfully, whether you are back at work or enjoying the sunshine on this glorious bank holiday Monday. But wherever you are and whatever you’re doing, it’s time to take a break and check out the sumptuous, summery images in this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is prompted by the theme; Here comes Summer.
I took a very pleasant drive up into the hills above Barnstaple again yesterday, this time capturing the views from around the village of Heanton Punchardon. I’ve included a short video, giving a 360° view from a field below the village, so you too can enjoy the peace and quiet of the Devon countryside.
What delights did you find for us to wonder at this week, come on, we’d love to see…

This week’s prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge asked you to get out amongst the greenery and show us what it’s like in; My green world.
I took a short drive into the countryside just outside Barnstaple, to capture some of the newly lush landscape around Westacott and in the hills above Goodleigh.
I look forward to seeing what delights you have to unveil to us this week…

On this week’s adventure in inspired imagery with The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you to capture your photos; In the big wide open spaces.
There isn’t anywhere round here which meets that description better than Exmoor National Park, so I took a drive up to the hills around Simonsbath and enjoyed the peace and quiet in glorious sunshine.
I even filmed another little video tour for you.
Did the weather look kindly upon your corner of the world this week? Come on, let’s have a look at what you found…

Hello again, welcome to the week and another show and tell on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, today themed around the prompt; Against the wind.
Did I say something about the weather cooperating on Saturday?
Hmm, silly me, that didn’t help at all.
Saturday was mainly grey and miserable, with short bursts of blue sky and apathetic sunshine, yesterday it was just nasty, so I had to settle for snapping some wind-sculpted trees on a drive through the hills around Bideford.
Did the elements play ball for you at the weekend? Come on, let’s see what you captured…

Hello there, it’s Monday again which means it’s time for your weekly round up of our intrepid photo-bloggers’ exploits in the land of The Cosmic Photo Challenge.
For this week’s mission, assuming you decided to accept it, you were instructed to capture the likenesses of things; Before the leaves.
I took the opportunity of some late afternoon sunshine (the attractive but unheated kind) on Saturday, to go for a chilly stroll round Coombe Woods, the community woodland project set up with millennium funding in 1999.
I even tried a spot of creative manipulation with a shot of the trees at the end of our garden.
Did you branch out into something new at the weekend, don’t leaf us in suspense, show us whatcha got…

Hello and welcome to The Cosmic Photo Challenge, here to brighten the start of a chilly Monday with images taken in; The cold light of day.
It was fortunate that I stopped off at Instow beach on Saturday to take my photos for this week’s challenge, since the weather turned truly nasty yesterday.
You might get the impression from the bright sunshine that it was a pleasantly warm stroll along the harbour, but I can confirm that it was, indeed, extremely cold and blustery. In fact I was almost toppled off the sea wall on several occasions while capturing these windblown shots.
What did you br-r-r-r-r-ring to the party this week?
Don’t be shy, let us all have a look…
