Dale offers the prompt “through an opening” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
These are all older photos over many years. In the first photo, I imagined the clouds making an opening for the sun to shine.
In the second, the rocks made an opening for the plants to grow.
In the third I imagined the cracks between the stones forming the Western Wall in Jerusalem made an opening for petitions.
Dale offers the prompt “any two colors” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
My two colors are blue and white. Some other colors slipped in, but they are primarily blue and white.
Dale offers the prompt “art for art’s sake” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Below are photos of Spanish moss. It hangs from trees in the southeastern part of the United States. I think of it as a swirling bunch mindless modern (or pretentious postmodern) art as an excuse to use it for this prompt.
We were in Tampa, Florida, recently. The place where we stayed had many trees with this growing on them.
Dale offers the prompt autumn colors for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
The trees in South Carolina where I am now have not changed as much as I know they will.
Here are pictures from late autumn in northeastern Illinois.
Dale offers the prompt “reflections” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Below are some reflections on Techny Pond, a small body of water, in Northbrook, IL.
We used to live in the buildings seen in the distance of the first photo.
Dale offers the prompt “a splash of color” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Dale offers the prompt “as the nights draw in” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Dale offers the prompt “one thing inside another” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
In the first photo there are tiny plants growing inside the space between the rocks.
In the second, there’s a heart inside this huge palm branch, if you can see it.
In the third, there are three (oops, make that four) tiny birds inside this sunrise.
Dale offers the prompt “up, down and sideways” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
I first thought of taking a picture of a tree, but I have already done something like that.
I ended up going up and down the stairway.
Dale offers the prompt “life in black and white” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
I took some pictures along the Shady Hollow Trail while at the McDowell Nature Preserve which is about a fifteen minute drive from where we live.
After converting them to black and white I added a lot of contrast and lowered the brightness to help the black stand out from the white.
