Cosmic Photo prompt.

For this week’s creative adventure on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I’d like you to indulge me, as I have an ulterior motive for today’s prompt; Forces of nature.

You’ll have to wait and see what I have in mind, but that’s fair, since I always have to wait and see what y’all bring to the party.

So give us all something naturally powerful to gaze upon at the start of the week and make our Monday less, well, Monday.

“So, how do I do that?”, you ask.

Just follow these simple steps and dive right in…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For your weekend homework on this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you (as it turns out, not very inclusively) to capture; Midsummer.

It was pointed out (thanks, eklastic) that I should have added Midwinter, to include my visitors from below the equator, so apologies for that unintentional omission.

I took a drive yesterday afternoon, while the sun battled for space between the clouds; visiting Eastleigh village with its neatly kept churchyard and picturesque cottages, capturing some panoramas of the Torridge valley and the quiet country lanes.

ow it’s your turn to show us your visions of solstice.

It’s easy to do, just follow these simple steps…

I’m making it easy on you with today’s prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, by picking something that’s globally relevant; Midsummer/Midwinter.

It’s the longest day tomorrow, giving you more time to capture your images than any other weekend this year, so get out there and find some stunning shots to start our collective, worldwide week.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Another belated prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, but then I’m sure y’all are used to that by now, so I won’t bother with excuses.

Today’s creative inspiration will hopefully be provided by variations on the theme of; Shadows and silhouettes.

That should give you plenty of scope for your artistic endeavours this weekend, so get snapping and I’ll catch you back here on Monday.

In the meantime, stay, safe, wash your hands, be good to each other.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Apologies for the lateness of the hour, I kept getting sidetracked and completely forgot to supply you with a prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge this week.

So let’s make it an easy one today; Shades of grey.

That’s it, time to get monochromatic for Monday and show us something less colourful than usual.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I’ll see y’all in a couple of days.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

The time has come once again to light the blue touch-paper on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, stand well back and see what explodes out of the prompt; Feel the heat.

I spent another weekend in the blazing sunshine out in the garden, where we had a barbeque on Saturday…

…and yesterday I spotted this little chap enjoying a dust bath.

Now it’s time for you to showcase your contributions…

This week’s prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge is tempting fate, weather-wise, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn’t jinx everyone’s weekend; Feel the heat.

And that’s it, I don’t think you need any further explanation, so enjoy the rain lovely sunshine for a couple of days and I’ll be here to accept your contributions on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Hello and welcome to a slightly later than usual, bank holiday edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, brought to you today by the prompt; Geometric shapes.

I have to admit to not being very prepared this week, so I got creative this morning with a Twin Peaks’ Black Lodge floor-themed mug…

…which I used as a counterpoint to various patterned surfaces in and around the house to make these abstract artworks.

Were you more organised than me this week?

Show off the fruits of your photographic labours and let us all in on the fun…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

It’s such a novelty, having a weekly schedule again, I’d completely forgotten there was something else I usually do on a Friday…a prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge!

So here it is, a day late and a dollar short as my wife would say; I’d like your compositions for Monday’s post to be on the theme of geometric shapes.

That was the result of me sitting on the sofa staring blankly into the middle distance for two minutes, rather than any specific thought processes, so not even I know what I might come up with this week.

But if you think you can find something which fits the bill, why not join us at the start of the week for some photographic fun, it’s easy when you know how…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Ok, so this is the “new normal” we’re going to have to get used to, is it?

Well, one thing hasn’t changed and that still means that every Monday on Return of the Internet Nobody, I do a little feature called The Cosmic Photo Challenge and you are all cordially invited to take part.

On Friday I left you a suggestion based on our recent collective incarceration; asking you to capture whatever your personal version is of; The world in lockdown.

I have collected together a few of the shots I took over the last few, surreal weeks, when it has been possible to capture our beautiful town and countryside in a uniquely unpopulated state.

It has also meant that I could take photos from places that are usually far less accessible. These first two were taken from the high River Torridge road bridge, looking both downstream towards Bideford and the mouth of the estuary…

…and inland towards Appledore, with its naval shipyard.

I was lucky enough to catch a good clear evening with no traffic and a full moon high tide, so I could quickly stop the car to jump out and snap these.

But although the weather was equally glorious a few days ago when I took some on Barnstaple square and the more modest (but ancient and far more attractive) “Long Bridge” over the River Taw in town, the tide was resolutely out.

I also had a bit of a play around with a shot of the Albert Memorial clock tower outside the museum and I’m rather pleased with the result of my meticulous fingertip erasing.

As the world returns to some semblance of its bustling self, it’s almost a shame to lose the tranquility and stillness which we humans so casually shatter with our busy lives.

It has been a rare and unusual privilege to witness my home in this more natural, unsullied state and it makes me appreciate it all the more, too.

How does your world look in these strange times?

It couldn’t be easier to take part, just follow these simple steps…
