Cosmic Photo prompt.

Oops, in all the excitement of it being Friday I nearly forgot about The Cosmic Photo Challenge, but I’m here just in time to give you your weekly prompt; Low elevation.

There you go, nice and simple, let’s see some shots taken from below the usual eye-level for a change.

Have a great weekend, see you on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: The sky’s the limit.

Hello there, the very best of Mondays to you. Today on The Cosmic Photo Challenge we’re turning our attention upwards again, because this week; The sky’s the limit.

There are a lot of fabulously fluffy cloud formations around at the moment, which have combined rather nicely with a vapour trail in one of my shots. In fact it made such a nice shot, I used it for the cover art on my latest EP*, which you can check out by clicking on the photo in question, or at this link.

What did you see up in the great blue yonder at the weekend?

*BONUS CONTENT

Speaking of new music, here’s another brand spanking new audio visual project I finished just yesterday. I couldn’t begin to guess what musical genre you’d fit this into, but I’ve called it Return Of The Malevolent Seven and it’s a bit of an epic.

It’s finally Friday, which means it’s time for this week’s prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I couldn’t think of anything in particular for a theme today, so we’ll return to one we’ve had before; The sky’s the limit.

Anything you think will fit that concept is fine by me, have a great weekend and I’ll see y’all on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: More than the sum of its parts.

Hello, welcome to Monday and this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Today is all about making an image which is; More than the sum of its parts.

I went for a walk in the sunshine yesterday and came across a cornfield.

Do you ever wonder what might be going on, in amongst all those tightly packed rows of plants…?

What did your weekend add up to?

This week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I’d like you to provide an image which is; More than the sum of its parts.

I’m sure inventive, creative people like yourselves can interpret that in any number of ways. It could be a collage or composite image of some sort, or maybe a picture of something containing many parts, possibly a meal consisting of multiple ingredients…

As ever on the challenge, I leave it entirely up to your photographic imaginations. Have a great weekend and we’ll meet back here to compare notes on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: From underneath.

Good morning, welcome to Monday and to this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is themed around the prompt; From underneath.

We had a long wait at Heathrow on Saturday as my daughter, Audrey, was off to America for a month on her own.

While I waited and drank monstrously expensive coffee, I captured some of the airport architecture.

Here’s a shot from under the trees, which are also underneath a glass canopy; giant hanging sculptures in the departure hall; some creative lighting installations surrounding a ceiling fan; an interesting view from the mirrored roof of a lift and the view through the glass wall.

What did you look up at this weekend?

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Hi there, it’s the end of another week so it must be time for your prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge. Today I think we’ll go a bit nonspecific and capture images; From underneath.

How you interpret that is, of course, entirely up to you, I look forward to seeing what you come up with on Monday.

Have a great weekend, catch you on the other side.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Festival special.

Hello everyone (including any neighbours I met on the campsite), welcome to this week’s edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, once again brightening your Monday with eclectic images from around the world.

I set the theme on Friday with full knowledge of the fact I was attending Leopallooza festival over the weekend, thereby giving myself a slight advantage when I set you a theme of; Festivals.

So to make it fair I gave you a wild card Freestyle option to post whatever you like, in case you didn’t have any appropriately festive material to hand.

Friday dawned bright and sunny, boding well for pitching the tent, so I made an early start and after arriving at the site before the gates opened, was actually the very first person on the campsite.

I made a beeline for the high ground and got the tent up on my prime piece of real estate before anyone else could stake their claim, nicely sheltered by a tall hedge with a view across the whole site. It wasn’t long before some fellow campers arrived to complete a very convivial little neighborhood and after a coffee and a chat I went exploring.

On Saturday the rains came. And they kept coming. And they brought the mud.

It cheered up again on Sunday, but the mud remained and it was only the weather which needed cheering up anyway, I didn’t see an unhappy face all weekend, the atmosphere was great.

And they have the best festival bar I’ve ever seen. It has sofas! It has armchairs! It has a view of the arena!

I didn’t spend the whole weekend in there, honest.

Here are some of my highlights from what was sadly the very last Leopallooza festival, although there are rumours that it may return in some form soon.

{There’s an expanded version of this post on my other blog and you can see it HERE}

Festive or freestyling, which did you choose this week? Drop your links in the comments and show us what you have to offer…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Hello there. No it’s ok, your calendar isn’t wrong, I’m here to give you your prompt for The Cosmic Photo Challenge a whole day early.

The reason for all this promptness? I’m off for a three day break at the Leopalooza festival, just across the border in Cornwall and I’m not sure about the phone signal down there, so I thought it was better to be safe than sorry.

As a result, it’s kind of dealer’s choice this week, but I’m also letting you choose, by making the theme; Freestyle/Festival.

If you have any pictures of festivals or festivities to share, no matter what the occasion, let’s see them; if not then the world is the mollusc of your choice and you can present us with images on any subject whatsoever.

Apparently we’re in for quite a lot of rain in the coming days, so I imagine I will be a little soggy when I return on Monday with a festival special extravaganza.

Have a great weekend, happy snapping.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Around the garden.

Hi there, I hope you had a good weekend in the fresh air, because this week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge we’re going to be looking; Around the garden.

I had to dodge the rain to capture my shots, the weather really hasn’t been very cooperative the last couple of weeks. I also did some experiments with long exposures during high winds, I like the juxtaposition of static image and movement.

How did your garden tour go, it’s time to show us around…
