The Cosmic Photo Challenge: The view through…

On By dalecooper57In photography15 Comments

Welcome to a May Day bank holiday edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which this week is framed by; The view through…

Lots of room for interpretation in that prompt, so I went for a walk and captured views through (or between, or from under) a couple of bridges and an electricity pylon.

Where did your weekend search for inspiration take you..?

Yay, it’s Friday, time to get some direction for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge, which is actually on time for once.

Let’s broaden the scope of the prompt today, by requesting pictures that meet the brief; The view through…

I think that’s a nicely open ended theme for you to interpret any which way you want, I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Have a great weekend and I’ll see you on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Show us your bloomers.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography13 Comments

Hi there, I hope your weekend was relaxing and that your Monday is as good as can be expected so far.

This week on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I asked you to provide pictures which satisfy the prompt; Show us your bloomers.

Our garden is hardly in full flower at the moment, most of the perennials have only recently regenerated after their winter rest, but the bugle is already filling the border with purple spikes and the bluebells look good against the yellow acer. I dodged the rain showers on Saturday to capture some tree blossoms and more bluebells in the park, too.

Now let’s see your floral offerings…

Hello, sorry I’m late (again), but now I’m here to give you your prompt for Mondays edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Since the year is getting on, I think it’s about time we stopped to smell the flowers, so this week’s theme is; Show us your bloomers.

I mean, flowers was the direction I was heading in, but maybe you’ve taken up making sourdough or sewing lingerie, who knows..?

Anyway, as ever the choice of how to interpret the prompt is entirely up to you, so I await the results with anticipation.

Have a great weekend, see y’all soon.

Where did the weekend go?

Oh well, it might be Monday again, but at least that means it’s time for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which is inspired this week by the prompt; Lighter mornings/longer evenings.

I have a couple each from each end of the day, along with one of me getting legless in the garden yesterday evening.

Mornings…

…and evenings.

Now let’s see what you captured for us this week…

Happy Friday, everyone. For this week’s prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I think it’s time we did; Lighter mornings/longer evenings.

Feel free to spin that whichever way you like (including changing it to “Darker mornings/shorter evenings” if you’re below the equator) and we can compare and contrast our results on Monday.

Have a great weekend, look forward to seeing y’all on the other side.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography11 Comments

Hello there, I hope you all enjoyed your weekend, I’m looking forward to your contributions for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, based on the prompt; An Easter walk.

I went for a pleasant stroll in the woods just a few minutes from home and followed the river through drifts of wild garlic, celandine and wood anemones.

Now you can show us the scenery on your Easter walk…

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Art for art’s sake.

On By dalecooper57In arts, editing and effects, photography15 Comments

It’s Monday again and time to get creative for The Cosmic Photo Challenge, because this week’s theme is; Art for art’s sake.

I always enjoy a bit of mucking about, so I spent a couple of very pleasant, zen-like hours yesterday, making this single composite image.

Where did your artistic muse take you at the weekend?

It looks like being a pretty nasty weekend here, at least as far as the weather’s concerned, so for this week’s theme on The Cosmic Photo Challenge I’m going to take an opportunity to do some; Art for art’s sake

Yes, it’s another outing for our semi-regular feature that promotes creative flights of fancy. This week your mission is to post pictures which you consider artistic in their own right, whether the art is intrinsic to the image itself, or created by you, the choice, as ever is yours.

Have a great weekend, see you on Monday.
