Cosmic Photo prompt.

Hello, sorry I’m late, but here I am to give you your latest mission on The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

This week I’ve been hearing a lot about Glastonbury on the radio and it has given me a bad case of music festival withdrawal. So while I search for a local event to attend this summer, I will content myself with revisiting previous communal terpsichorean experiences.

To this end, I’m setting the theme for Monday’s challenge as; Music on film.

Now, if this requires you to rifle through your archives to find something apposite, be my guest, that’s exactly what I’ll be doing. But obviously, if you do happen upon some new musical imagery, don’t hesitate to snap it up.

Have a great weekend, see y’all soon.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Summer views.

On By dalecooper57In nature photography, photography11 Comments

Well, didn’t that weekend go by quickly?

Anyway, since we’re all here and it’s apparently Monday again, let’s get on with The Cosmic Photo Challenge and have a look at your; Summer views.

As it turned out, the weather was just starting to change as I went out taking pictures yesterday morning (there was a thunder storm later), but it is summer and these were the views I had as I walked along the river from Fremington Quay.

Where did your photographic wanderings take you for the challenge this week..?

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: The great wide open.

On By dalecooper57In editing and effects, nature photography, photography15 Comments

I thought the weather was turning against me at the weekend and getting out into The great wide open might have been more of a Cosmic Photo Challenge than usual, but yesterday the sun returned after a foggy start at the local vineyard.

By one o’clock it was roasting hot and I drove up to the wind farm on top of the river valley, where panoramas really are the only way to do the view justice. I was rather pleased with capturing four moving turbines in a single long exposure shot, plus I caught a couple of nice reflections.

Where in the great outdoors did you seek inspiration at the weekend..?

Fingers crossed the weather stays nice this weekend, because The Cosmic Photo Challenge is going out into; The great wide open.

Sometimes it’s nice to get out where you can see the whole sky for a change, really feel the space around you, which is the feeling I’d like your images to evoke for Monday’s post.

Have a great weekend, enjoy the great outdoors.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Fun in the sun.

On By dalecooper57In editing and effects, photography12 Comments

Good day to you, wherever you may be, I hope you managed to have Fun in the sun at the weekend, to give you material for The Cosmic Photo Challenge today.

I took a walk around the local funfair, which has been in town for a couple of weeks, to try some experiments with long exposure pictures of the various spinning and undulating rides.

Also, because music is never far away from my weekend itinerary, I used a timelapse video of the fairground to provide a visual accompaniment to one of yesterday’s peculiar sonic adventures.

Now let’s have a look at your fun weekend…

Happy Friday, everyone, it’s time once again for your prompt in the direction of The Cosmic Photo Challenge.

This week we’re going out looking for; Fun in the sun.

However your camera eye sees that is fine by me and I look forward to checking out the results on Monday.

Have a great weekend. Later, gators.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: I’ll see you in the trees.

Hello there, welcome to this week’s special bank holiday Monday multimedia bonus edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is inspired by the prompt; I’ll see you in the trees.

Our run of extraordinarily fine weather in the UK continued right through the weekend, so early yesterday morning I took tranquil walk around Venn Quarry Woods in the already warm summer sunshine.

You, too can enjoy a moment of peace and quiet in this woodland wonderland, complete with relaxing birdsong, via the embedded Instagram player below.

*BONUS CONTENT*

I had quite a musical weekend (what with the release of my new album of original material), including making this glitchy electronica audio-visual piece, incorporating the birds of Venn Quarry Woods on vocals.

I’m sure you have some tree-mendous photos to fit the bill, so why not join in, it couldn’t be easier…

It’s a lovely day, the sun is shining and The Cosmic Photo Challenge is here to get you out into nature, with this week’s prompt; I’ll see you in the trees.

I love this time of year, when the bare branches have regained their foliage and a whole new world comes to life in the canopy above us.

So over the next couple of days, get out there and capture some arboreal images for Monday’s post, but most of all have a great weekend. See y’all on the other side.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Circle/Square.

On By dalecooper57In editing and effects, nature photography, photography14 Comments

Monday always brings opportunities, the main one being the opportunity to share your pictures with us on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is on the theme of; Circle/Square.

I don’t mind telling you I’ve been very lazy this weekend and I sat in the sunshine with a book almost the whole time, from where I could see the beautiful circular bloom of our first rose.

There were also some strangely angular flowers (some plants may have been harmed in the making of these photos) or maybe it was just me and my square eyes…

How did your weekend shape up? Why not join in, it’s easy to do…
