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

To get involved with the challenge; check out the Cosmic Photo Prompt each Friday, then post a photo (or photos) on your blog the following Monday, with a pingback link to my Monday post.
Tag your posts with #CosPhoChal.
Any and all effects, editing, Photoshop, Instagram, morphing, collages, animation, gifs, or whatever other post production techniques you fancy are permitted, (in fact, they’re actively encouraged!) so get creative and turn your photos into artworks for the Cosmic Photo Challenge
Oh, these are beautiful. I wish I had time to look for things like this, but I worked this weekend, and anyway…mine’s a little outside the box.

You have been blessed with a lot of fruit. I don’t know what “conkers” are. I especially liked the last photo with the orangish round fruit.

I believe those last fruits are wild plums.
I think conkers might be a uniquely British thing, it’s a game played with horse chestnuts, here’s an explainer for you…

That is a great video. I had no idea what that game was.

I’m not sure how popular it is nowadays (health and safety has forced kids to wear goggles while playing, I remember) but when I was at school it was a very big thing each year.
People would bake conkers in the oven, soak them in vinegar, all sorts of tricks to make them rock hard and unbeatable in combat. Although if you weren’t careful they’d become brittle and shatter.

Great variety, Dale! I limited myself to one variety, chestnuts.

I think if I’d left it another week, the birds would have stripped the rest
