The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Woodland winter.

On By dalecooper57In editing and effects, nature photography, photography9 Comments

Another week dawns and another edition of The Cosmic Photo Challenge rises from the ashes of the weekend to brighten your Monday.

Good morning everyone, I hope your day is going well so far and you’re ready to face the challenge of the prompt; Woodland winter.

I took a very pleasant, if slightly soggy walk, through the woods around the soon to be developed Venn Quarries just outside Barnstaple.

The river was pretty swollen by the recent heavy rain and I managed to capture a few long exposure shots of the swirly currents, giving the water an ethereal, misty effect, along with some super slo-mo clips of waterfalls, which you can see in the short video tour below.

ended up with too many shots to choose between, so I have posted the entire gallery on my other blog and you can see them all HERE}

Now it’s time to see images of your own winter woodland wonderlands, I can’t wait to see what you have for us.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Starting afresh.

Welcome, one and all, to the very first reveal post of 2022 on The Cosmic Photo Challenge, which today is themed around the prompt; Starting afresh.

A pretty broad brush with which to create our photographic masterpieces and I chose to take my first stroll of the year round Rock Park yesterday, later than planned as it began to bucket down with rain just as I was leaving.

However, that downpour provided some perfect stretches of standing water, all the better for catching reflections. I also captured some fresh paint and some not so fresh…

How was your start to the new year, show us your inaugural images and let us all share in your creativity.
