The Cosmic Photo Challenge: A reminder of what you’re missing.

Hi there, sorry I haven’t posted in a while, life has been a bit full and I’ve been absorbed in various other creative pursuits, the main one being audio visual in nature, about which more in the not too distant future.

But for now I’m concentrating on the purely visual arts, namely; The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For well over 200 posts now, my fellow intrepid photographic adventurers and I have challenged ourselves to come up with images themed around a weekly prompt and the results have been eye-opening, to say the least.

The creativity and talent out there in the blogosphere never ceases to amaze me and I’m very grateful to all of those who regularly take part…but I want to see more of that fantastic talent and imagination.

To that end, I’m reposting this week’s challenge here, with a few extra photos thrown in to sweeten to deal, along with ***A REALLY REALLY OBVIOUS LINK*** to The Cosmic Photo Challenge’s new home, so you can come on over and get involved.

On The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week, I asked you to capture your images; On the shore.

After over 20 years living in North Devon, I finally made my first trip to a hidden Victorian gem, Tunnel Beaches in Ilfracombe.

Accessed by an unassuming white tunnel entrance just a few minutes walk from the high street, these beaches were opened in the early 1800s with the two naturally separated coves enabling ladies and gentlemen to bathe with their modesty intact. The gentlemen’s beach was in use for a wedding yesterday, so I took a stroll around the rugged landscape of the ladies beach and made a video tour, accompanied by an extract from a recently composed piece of appropriately watery ambient electronica*.

Where did your search for the water’s edge take you at the weekend? Let’s have a look at your pictures…

Good evening, it’s time for your weekly dose of creative guidance on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, today supplied by the theme; Look to the skies.

We’ve had similar prompts before, but it’s one of, if not the most universal view for all of us and you still never know what you’re going to see when you look up.

Have a great weekend, see you for the big reveal on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Hello everybody, welcome to Monday and, more importantly, welcome to The Cosmic Photo Challenge, today themed around; Autumnal landscapes

To meet this week’s brief, I once again took a stroll around the woods and riverbanks near Fremington Quay on the river Taw, just outside Barnstaple.

You can see the results of my walk by clicking THIS LINK, to visit (and follow, I hope) the challenge’s new home on its own blog.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

This week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I asked you to base your creative contributions on the prompt; Dusk.

I fulfilled my optical obligations by taking a quick drive down to the town square yesterday evening, to capture some sunset shots by the river Taw.

Where were you to document day’s end for us this week…?

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Good morning, welcome to the new week. Monday means The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which this week is themed around the prompt; Repetition.

It occurred to me that using the same photo multiple times is something I’d already been mucking about with during the week, so I added a couple of new edits and one other, more reflective shot for variety.

Now it’s time for your repetitive images, let’s have a look…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Good morning and welcome to your perma-late prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I was trying to think of a theme which hasn’t been repeated too many times, when suddenly it struck me that there was one we hadn’t had before (at least I don’t remember if we have) and ironically it is; Repetition.

So duos, trios, quads and upwards are all de rigueur for Monday’s big reveal, whether in real life or achieved by sneaky editing, all your repetitious offerings will be greatly received.

Have a great weekend, see you in a couple of days.

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…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Good morning and welcome to another Monday show and tell on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, this week brought to you by the prompt; The arrival of autumn. (with the usual caveat to anyone in the southern hemisphere, of course..)

I had planned to take a walk along the Tarka Trail from Fremington Quay yesterday, but when I drove up there I found the access road closed due to a running event, so I continued on to Instow and captured the start of autumn on the beach instead.

I hope your weekend went well and I’d love to see what the change of season looks like in your part of the world…
