Early ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #357

Pic and a Word Challenge

Last week we had a chat over our Fences.

This week let’s get up and at ’em Early. Or seek something else to inspire you in this macro photograph of an early spring bloom in February’s depths of winter.

The reading’s songbird accompaniment was recorded while I was photographing these spring buds in Vancouver’s Hinge Park Wetland. Feel free to find something in this to inspire your creativity as well. 🙂

The Pic and a Word Challenge is a weekly creativity prompt 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, podcast, 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.
