#CCC48
Welcome to my weekly challenge—open to all—just for FUN, FUN, FUN
Here’s how it works:
Every Wednesday I post a photo (this week it’s that one above.)
You respond with something CREATIVE
Here are some suggestions:
- An answering photo
- A cartoon
- A joke
- A caption
- An anecdote
- A short story (flash fiction)
- A poem
- A newly minted proverb, adage or saying
- An essay
- A song—the lyrics or the performance
You have plenty of scope and only two criteria:
- Your creative offering is indeed yours
- Your writing is kept to 150 words or less
If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it
If you include Crimson’s Creative Challenge as a heading, WP Search will find it (theory)
by ‘Searching’ in the WP Reader (fingers crossed)
Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN.
Red Bridge over River Tud at Costessey, just outside Norwich.

Wow another fascinating photo. The longer I look at it the more I like it. I love the way you’ve caught the reflections of the water and it’s so clear. The first thing that comes to mind is what could have happened here. Thanks for the inspiration Crispina 🙂

Beautiful photo, Crispina. Both the colours and how you’ve managed to catch the light’s reflection in the little tunnel are stunning 🙂

What a yield! This has to be the best autumn for fungi for several years. Berries too. Rain, and still quite warm. Excellent conditions.

Is that a bridge or some sort of outflow?

It’s a bridge. It’s only a small stream, except when it runs high with winter melt-waters

I thought you have cropped it, to get the right fit. And by making it darker, you’ve given it the same tonal feel. Nice one, Dale. Gold Star!

I did only slightly crop it, because ironically, I took the picture on my walk on Tuesday. I made it darker and changed the tone slightly 😉 PicMonkey is so much fun! And a gold start to boot! Woot!

Fairly late into the prompt, Crispina, but I still wanted to participate. Something about the contrast between the stillness of the water in the sun and the darkness of the culvert pulled this out of me:
