Thursday photo prompt – Dark #writephoto

Posted on March 1, 2018 by Sue Vincent

#writephoto

Every Thursday at noon GMT, I publish one of my photos as a writing prompt.  If you know where the photo was taken, please keep it to yourself until the challenge is closed. I usually share something about the place during the round-up.

Throughout the week I will feature as many of the responses here on the Daily Echo as space allows. Every week, a full round-up of posts will be published linking back to the original posts of contributors.

You can find all last week’s entries in the weekly round-up. Please visit and read the stories and poems and explore the sites of their writers. I feature as many contributions as I can on the blog during the week, but given the volume of contributions that will seldom  be all of them!

The best way to ensure your post is featured is to send it well before the deadline but all posts will be included in a round up on Thursday 8th March

Use the image below as inspiration to create a post on your own blog… poetry, prose, humour… light or dark, whatever you choose, by noon (GMT)  Wednesday 7th March and link back to this post with a pingback. There is no word limit and no style requirements, except to keep it fairly family friendly.

If you are unsure of how to create a pingback, Hugh has an excellent tutorial here.

Pingbacks need to be manually approved, so either check back to make sure that the pingback has appeared or simply copy and paste your link into the comments section of this post.

 Feel free to use #writephoto logo or include the prompt photo in your post if you wish or you can replace it with one of your own to illustrate your work. Don’t forget to use the #writephoto hashtag in your title so your posts can be found.

Have fun!

    Hi Sue. My entry might confuse you!
    https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2018/03/01/writephoto-challenge-march-1st-dark/
    I wasn’t sure if this was a black and white photo or colour, but the more I looked at it, the more black and white it appeared, apart from that little triangle of sky sort of centre left close to the indentation of the mountains. It kept appearing slightly blue to me!
    Great picture to work with.

    Hi Sue! I hope you are keeping warm. This could well be the last poem I post before I go off-line, as long as the trains are running and I can get down to Guildford tomorrow. There will be radio silence for about a week, depending on when my grandson decides to make his debut! I hope my poetic offering does the gorgeous image justice.

    Here’s my response to your photo Sue – this was a challenging one but I got a lot of writing a response . It was very cathartic. https://bloggingcalmandchaos.wordpress.com/2018/03/03/psychological-spaces/

    Hi Sue, The picture seems to be quite illusionary and obscure. Here is what it inspired within seconds. https://balroop2013.wordpress.com/2018/03/02/dark-writephoto/

    Hi Sue, lovely picture.
    I went for a bit of legend with a tongue-in-cheek dash of karma for mine this week. Hope you enjoy 🙂
