This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: The World in Lockdown.
The first thing that came to mind was a small selection of photos from my various walks around the neighborhood during the lockdown in Ontario.
Late March and the sky is already noticeably bluer with so little air traffic.
Some colourful moss and lichen growing on a limestone boulder.
Ivy growing up a tree trunk.
A sign of spring, new leaves starting to unfurl two days ago.
This is my contribution to the Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge: Walkabout.
A few photos from some of my walks around the neighborhood over the past few weeks.
Some interesting tree bark with Cedar trees and blue sky providing blocks of colour in the background.
Paper Birch trees against a blue sky with some nice wispy clouds.
Colourful green moss and orange Lichen growing on a boulder.
A giant blue butterfly garden ornament against a blue sky.
This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: The Textures In Your World.
My first thought was photos of texture on snow but I decided to expand on that and go with a selection of photos taken on various walks around the neighborhood over the past few months.
Windblown snow.
Hosta leaves.
Orange Lichen and green Moss on a limestone boulder.
Ivy leaves and autumn leaves.
A sideways look at the One Word Sunday challenge Feet.

This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: Colour My World.
After abandoning the first couple of ideas for the challenge I decided that I would go with a photo from each season. I then decided to try to use only shots close to home taken on my various walks with a camera over the past year.
Autumn leaves amongst the Ivy leaves at the end of November. Taken with a 50mm CCTV lens adapted to fit a small mirrorless camera.
A group of Coneflowers in the middle of August. Taken with a 12mm lens on a small mirrorless camera. I was testing it to be the wide angle lens in the lightweight kit of three manual focus primes I was putting together.
Colourful Lichen and Moss on a limestone boulder in early June. Taken with a small mirrorless camera and plastic kit lens it came with. I had only been discharged from the rehab unit for about a week and was still on crutches at that point.
A Maple leaf on snow in February. Taken before my accident with a DSLR and zoom lens.
