Hello, welcome to 2026’s very first edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, brought to you by the totally topical prompt; A cold start.
We’ve certainly had no shortage of those in the last few days, so here are some frosty shots from one of my morning walks at the weekend.













Now let’s see your chilly images…

Beautiful scenes. I especially liked those trees by the water and the fifth photo where the lane seemed to make an S shift in the distance.
