Cosmic Photo prompt.

On By dalecooper57In photography1 Comment

Good evening, welcome to yet another glorious sunny day and to this week’s prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Given the weather forecast for the coming weekend, I think the best place to be is; By the water.

You know what to do, provide us with some watery images to brighten our Monday and I’ll see y’all on the other side.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Community.

On By dalecooper57In photography7 Comments

Welcome to Monday, let’s get on with The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which this week is concerned with; Community.

It seems I might have picked the wrong day to go into town taking photos, as the weather was so gorgeous, everyone was at the beach.

However, I did capture some historical displays connected to the VE80 celebrations, along with a few shots from a local pub, which hosts a regular open mic/jam session on Sunday afternoons.

There’s also an old picture from the community of my youth, taken on New Year’s Eve, sometime in the ’90s.

I’m on the left, second from the front.

What did you spot in your local community over the weekend..?

Hello everyone, I hope your day is progressing well and that The Cosmic Photo Challenge finds you in a relaxed Friday mood.

This week’s prompt is inspired by people coming together for all the VE Day anniversary celebrations; Community.

So for Monday’s post, try to capture a flavour of your local community, however you choose to illustrate it.

Have a great weekend, see y’all again soon.

Hello there, I hope you all had a pleasant weekend, now it’s time for The Cosmic Photo Challenge and this week’s theme; In the evening light.

I spent the majority of my weekend in the garden, so that’s where I was as the sun went down.

So where did you capture your evening’s light this week..?

Another Friday, another prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

In anticipation of a (hopefully) summery bank holiday weekend, and the thought of spending time outside until late, let’s see some shots taken; In the evening light.

Have a great weekend, see you again on Monday.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Pick a colour.

On By dalecooper57In editing and effects, photography10 Comments

Hi there, it’s Monday again, so let’s dive straight in with The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which this week is based around the prompt; Pick a colour.

All your images this week should feature one colour of your choosing and I chose blue.

I decided to showcase my chosen colour to the exclusion of all others.

What colourful offerings do you have for us today..?

Good evening, I hope you’re all doing well and are ready to receive your Friday inspiration from The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

This week I’m giving you at least some say in the theme, because for Monday’s post I’d like you to; Pick a colour.

Choose any colour you like and make it a feature of your pictures, it’s as simple as that.

Have a great weekend, see y’all soon.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Up, down and sideways.

Hello, good morning and welcome to an Easter bank holiday edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is looking; Up, down and sideways.

I went for a very pleasant woodland walk on Saturday, through drifts of bluebells which grow at the foot of some impressive rocky outcrops, the tops of which made for good “down” images.

Up
Down
Sideways

A stream meanders along the woodland floor.

Hello, everyone, it’s time for your Friday prompt on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, giving you some inspiration for your photography homework.

This week we’re returning to a concept which allows plenty of scope for subject matter; Up, down and sideways.

So I’d like to see a set (or sets) of three images, each taken in one of the relevant directions. They don’t have to be taken in the same place, just as long as one is looking up, one looking down and one, you guessed it, looking sideways.

Have a great Easter weekend and I’ll see you all back here after the holidays.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Here’s some cool stuff I found.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography11 Comments

Hello there, welcome to a new week and to The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is letting you decide what we see, with the prompt; Here’s some cool stuff I found.

I was up in Sussex at the weekend and while I was walking on Rotherfield’s Millennium Green, I came across these wonderfully contorted tree stumps, which have been stripped of their branches but left standing as living sculptures. I think some of them look like giant mammoth tusks.

Also on the green was this living willow igloo, which must have taken hours of patient weaving to construct.

On a walk through the woods on the edge of the village, I found some very cool old railway tunnels, a “dog log” covered in canine tributes, a den made of dead branches and a tiny door at the foot of a tree

Later on, a few miles away in Tunbridge Wells, I walked past a clever shop display which briefly fooled me into thinking it was a view through their windows, but then I crossed the road and noticed an even more artistic illusion on the upper floor…

What did you see that was worth snapping over the weekend..?
