The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge I asked you to downsize, by giving you the prompt; On a small scale.

I decided to go on a miniature safari in the garden, finding a bumble bee on the bugle flowers, along with a snail and a spider lying in wait in the shed. I also built a new hedgehog house in the back corner of the border, which I think qualifies as a small scale log cabin.

Let’s see what details you managed to uncover over the weekend, it’s easy when you know how…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For this week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I asked you to capture your images; From close up.

It was a decidedly unpleasant weekend outside, so all but one of my shots came from indoors.

What did you zoom in on for today’s challenge? Show and tell time…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

On Friday I asked you to consider the birds and bees as your homework for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge and I chose to go on miniature safari in the garden.

I’d been wanting to try out the macro abilities of my new camera for a while and the buzzing of insects in the sunshine gave me the perfect excuse. I staked out the daffodils and spikes of purple bugle flowers and took a few shots of the inhabitants, until a compliant and extremely fuzzy bumble came along and I followed his progress until he fell asleep, nonchalantly dangling by one leg, snoring gently.

What photographic delights did the Easter weekend provide for you?

It’s as easy as a bee see to take part…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For this week’s theme on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you to go small, with the prompt; Macro.

This was mainly because I wanted to try out the closeup abilities of the improved camera on my new phone, so I just used the first small, interesting objects I found in the living room.

These happened to be in a jar of shells and interesting stones which have been collected over the years, including some pyrite and a petoskey stone Audrey brought from Michigan.

Now let’s have a look at your small objects of desire.
