Pic and a Word Challenge
A long time ago we entered darkness after the Sundown.
Now, let’s struggle through the decay to Renew our vibrance. Or seek something else to inspire you in this photograph of a decayed, vacant home in Skinners Pond, Prince Edward Island, Canada.
The Pic and a Word Challenge is a (well, used to be a) weekly creativity prompt (usually) offered Mondays.
With each challenge I provide a photograph of mine along with a single word. The challenge? Use the pic and/or word as inspiration to create something — a photograph, a painting, video, 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 to illustrate your post, or any images 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 challenge’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: Sundown
The word for last time’s Pic and a Word Challenge #351 was Sundown, along with this photograph of a prairie sunset in Bindloss, Alberta, Canada.
Four bloggers took in the Sundown before the months long darkness. Thanks, everyone! ❤ 🙂
