Point ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #215

The edge of earth
Harassed by sea
A shield of stone
Protects the land
And the people in its lee

Pic and a Word Challenge

Last week we got fired up with Inferno. This week, let’s get straight to the Point, or find something else to inspire you in this sunset photograph of Point Sur and its lighthouse along the Pacific Coast Highway in Big Sur, California, USA.

The Pic and a Word Challenge is a weekly creativity prompt offered Sundays.

Each week I provide a photograph of mine along with a single word. The challenge? Use the pic and/or word as points of inspiration to create something — a photograph, a painting, prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, longread or just a few words. You are welcome to use these two elements (photograph and word) literally, thematically or metaphorically. If you create both images and words, all the better.

To participate:

  • Use any title you like
  • Your response can be words and/or images
  • You may use my image in your post, or any image you have created
  • Mention that you are responding to the Pic and a Word Challenge
  • Add a link to this post in your response

To help us find your response — whether on WordPress, Instagram, Flicker, Tumblr, etc. — you can also:

  • Add a comment on this post to announce your response
  • Apply the tag/hashtag “Pic and a Word Challenge” or “#picandawordchallenge” to your post

Each week, I’ll list the previous week’s responses at the end of the new challenge. I may also share some on my social media: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc.

The previous challenge was: Inferno
Placid Amidst the Tumult, Pacific Coast Highway, Northern California, United States of America
Challenge #214 ~ Inferno
The word for last week’s Pic and a Word Challenge #214 was Inferno, along with this Pacific Ocean sunset along the Pacific Coast Highway in Northern California, USA.

Seven bloggers burned like an Inferno this week. =) Thank you, everyone! ❤

Happy Creating!
