Cosmic Photo Challenge: An Autumn Walk

Dale offers the prompt, “an autumn walk”, for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

The weather was beautiful today, Friday. Earlier I walked around McDowell Nature Preserve.

Here are some of the photos I took. These are fresh off my phone’s camera.

This fellow kept his eye on me as I passed him and was still watching when I returned.

This platform extends onto the lake which I suspect is for fishermen

Cosmic Photo Challenge: Seeds, Fruits and Nuts

Dale offers the prompt, “seeds, fruits and nuts” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I considered going to the grocery store to find these.

Instead, I searched through my photos. Here are some fruits.

I have no clue what this is, but it was found around Miami, Florida.
These are blackberries from South Carolina last June.
Another mysterious fruit from Florida.

Cosmic Photo Challenge: Foliage

Dale offers the prompt “foliage” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

He adds, “let’s capture some greenery up close, before the changing colours of autumn are upon us”.

Here are some of my captures.

A pond with blue-green algae (I think) over it hidden by green trees
Tunnel under the train tracks with many trees around them.
Up close and green

Cosmic Photo Challenge: The End of Summer

Dale offers the prompt “the end of summer” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Since I have been having trouble moving photos from my phone to the cloud and then back to my computer, these photos come from September of 2015, about the end of summer 11 years ago.

I think we were near Green Bay, Wisconsin at the time.

Cosmic Photo Challenge: Festivals, Fairs and Carnivals

Dale offers the prompt “festivals/fairs/carnivals” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

On July 4th of this year the United States celebrated its 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

Here are some of the fireworks set off by people in the cul-de-sac right outside our townhome.

Cosmic Photo Challenge: From the Ground Up

Dale offers the prompt “from the ground up” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I figured I better take or find pictures where I am standing on the ground looking up.

This is what I came up with.

I’m on the trail looking up at a train. Eventually I will go down the trail a bit and then under the tunnel to get to the other side.
I am standing on a sidewalk looking up at some bougainvillea draping over the wall.
Here I am standing on a trail looking up at some mountains.

Cosmic Photo Challenge: Shooting Through

Dale offers the prompt “shooting through” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

I have a few photos from the past that have stayed in my memory.

All of these were taken within the last year.

Cosmic Photo Challenge: The Ground Beneath Your Feet

Dale offers the prompt “the ground beneath your feet” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

The ground looks different depending where I am.

For variety I picked four different views of the ground that I’ve walked on over the past few years.

______

On a trail with stone boundaries
On a beach
On a fancy walkway
On drying clay ground

Cosmic Photo Challenge: Coast

Dale offers “coast” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Although I am not near a coast at the moment, I have been in the past.

Here are some memories of coasts.

______

Beach, clouds, wind
Wind, water and people enjoying it
A critter on the sandy shore just before a wave brought him happily back into the ocean
