The Cosmic Photo Challenge: An Autumn walk.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography12 Comments

Good morning, one and all, welcome to The Cosmic Photo Challenge on a damp, autumnal Monday, which is perfectly appropriate for today’s theme; An Autumn walk.

Most of my pictures are from a walk to Barnstaple town and back, starting in Rock Park, which borders the River Taw. I even mapped the route with my Strava walking app, for a bit of extra context.

Where did you wander in search of inspiration over the weekend..?

Hey, it’s Friday already, so it must be prompt time for The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Now the hot weather has passed, it seems like the perfect time to go for; An autumn walk.

Plenty of scope there, after all, you could be walking pretty much anywhere, so I’ll leave the subject matter up to you.

Have a great weekend, see you on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Seeds, fruits and nuts.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography14 Comments

Hello again, it’s time for The Cosmic Photo Challenge on this fine autumnal Monday morning, with this week’s seasonal theme; Seeds, fruits and nuts.

Multiple heatwaves, followed by a couple of weeks of rain, have resulted in a bumper crop of nuts and berries this year, all of which I captured in the countryside hedgerows, along with apples and plums!

A fine selection of conkers. Do kids play conkers where you’re from?

Now let’s see the fruits of your labour from the weekend…

Good morning, one and all, I trust your weekend went well and you’re raring to go on The Cosmic Photo Challenge this fine Monday morning.

Hello there, how’s your week going? I’ve just popped in to give you your prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge on this grey and damp Friday.

It was meteorologically the start of a new season on September the first, but let’s go by the astronomical timetable, allowing us to crowbar in a quick taste of; The end of Summer.

Have a great weekend, see you back here bright and early on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Festival special.

On By dalecooper57In photography13 Comments

Good afternoon, sorry I’m late, we’ve only just got back from Wiltshire, where not even the torrential rain on Saturday could spoil the fun.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge is this week concentrating on; Festivals/Fairs/Carnivals.

I know it’s rather unfair of me to tailor the prompt to my own selfish needs, but it’s better than having no challenge for a week and you can always use photos from your archives if there wasn’t an outdoor celebration near you over the weekend.

Once again The Barge Inn, at Honeystreet in Wiltshire, hosted their annual get together, the amazing festival which is Honeyfest.

Melody treated us to the full, luxury bell tent experience, so we spent the weekend in “Willow World”, like the global celebrities that we’re not.

“Dave the Sound Man” in action; Honeyfest’s unsung hero

What festivities did you capture for us..?

Good afternoon from a field in Wiltshire, where we shall be spending the next three days attending Honeyfest, at “the greatest venue in the known universe”, The Barge Inn, Honeystreet.

So, as I heavily hinted at last week, this week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge we are all about; Festivals/Fairs/Carnivals.

Feel free to plunder your archives if you don’t have a convenient outdoor event to hand, I’ll bring you the highlights of ours on Monday.

Have a great weekend, see you all again soon.
