Cosy Photo Challenge [Closed Til Next Time!]

[kayleee]

yes we need to pressure wash our gutters we just moved in a couple months ago and haven’t gotten around to it yet plz don’t roast me

ANYWAY this totally looked like a dog/wolf head to me. And a bonus cloud, the bottom part looks like a peach lol

Spoiler: name

the cloud faded away but you can tell it’s the same spot cause the dirty af gutters

 

[Rubombee]

I know you said the cloud didn't have to be a rabbit, but… I found one anyway ;p

Spoiler: name card

 

[The Pennifer]

Ha ha ... even the clouds are telling us! ... a bottle of hand sanitizer so clear! Be Covid Safe!
I couldn’t attach a name card so I scribbled it on the reveal picture ... I hope that is acceptable

Challenge #5

Prepare a midnight snack for you and me!
​

There were so many delicious assortment of snacks that it was very difficult to pick just one! There were impressive platters, delicately plated delights, and even homemade goodies. You all did a great job! However, I just had to pick this as my favorite midnight snack...

Not usually a fan of sweets late at night, but how could I say no to these adorably themed cookies for our sleepover?! I would happily scarf them down at any time of the day. I love how the cocktails also give a night time/space vibe and it just sounds super tasty! This pretty food pack is placed nicely together on a tray to snack comfortably anywhere! Great choice to munch on a cosy blanket surrounded by comfy pillows, @mogyay !

​

I’m sorry but who has time to bake AND decorate cookies in the middle of the night for a midnight snack? I think that challenge was a little misrepresented if the challenge had been to make some pretty pastel goodies, then I’d get it, but you asked for midnight snacks - the people that had microwave burgers were the most real entires on here

 

[SensaiGallade]

If our entry hasn't been accepted, what would you like us to do to fix it so it can?

 

[SinnerTheCat]

istg the weather has been so bad lately, IT RAINED EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST WEEK
I really hope this gets accepted, because I genuinely ran so fast to get my nametag when I saw this bird and it still lost its shape a bit

 

[rosetti]

The smaller cloud in the middle kinda looks like a wasp? Or a maybe a shrimp? Maybe both? U can decide hehe

[ali.di.magix]

The sad thing about where I live is that it's winter and that means it's overcast 90% of the time
I managed to catch a rare moment of blue, cloudy skies though!
The picture I took kinda looks like a Garry the snail from Spongebob Squarepants

Spoiler: Nametag

Sorry about it being so out of focus! The clouds were moving really fast so I was in a rush

 

[Lynnatchii]

I'm sorry that It doesn't have a name card, it's really bright and I can't really see my phone very well, so I just randomly took photos of the sky. It may doesn't seem sunny, it's because the focusing. I hope this is acceptable, if not that's fine.

This looks like a seahorse,

Please make a thread in Contact the Staff if you have any complaints with how this event is being run. @pandapples or myself will be happy to discuss this with you privately. We do not wish to see any of our members being wrongly targeted for decisions we have made.

I for one am happy with the snack cosy photo. It allowed me to post premade items.

some of you do not know the disappointment of spending so much money on the cooking events

 

[LambdaDelta]

I found a big fishie swimming in the sky :)

 

[Mick]

I've been told this could be an alligator but I looked at it as a dog chasing a ball ^^

(What I saw)

Spoiler: nominated for worst nametag image

So the cloud was outside in bright sunlight and I was inside, which made me so occupied with the exposure that I kinda failed to take a clear picture

Spoiler: seriously don't look

I tried to look for a new nice cloud so I could get a better name tag image but I failed, sorry panda <3
If it helps I can still get you a picture of the tree in the bottom left corner!

 

[Alienfish]

Slightly demonic fat rabbit cloud:

Spoiler: outlined cloud

I present: a Phoenix in flight
(right side is head, middle part is two wings flapping down, left side is tail)

 

[Katzenjammer]

I wish I could participate in the cloud contest thing, but there's been nothing but smoke and haze for so long where I live. I haven't seen a blue sky in so long, much less any clouds. So many fires burning... Everyone's entries are great though! =^.^=

The gave people an alternative so you can still participate.

Alternative prompt is available for those who are affected by wildfires/smoke. Those using the alternate prompt are not eligible for staff favorite since the criteria is slightly different.

A cluster of branches, leaves, bushes, or an entire tree. Send us a photo of that plant that looks like... that thing!

Requirements:

• Provide proof of your weather/environmental conditions by taking one sky photo with your name card.
• The plant (tree, bush, leaves, or branches) must be recognizable, and can be anything except basic shapes (circle, square, rhombus, etc), things that those plants look like anyway, or other vague items (e.g. a bush looks like a cloud).
• Do not use flowers.
• Caption your photo with what the plant is supposed to be.
• If it's difficult to visualize, you'll need to provide a version with an outline.

My cozy space is our room, and for a sleepover, I'd bring:
My switch with ACNH and BOTW
My tablet
My Van Gogh Stormtrooper shirt
My stuffed "Wox", to remind me of my husband and son.
And, I guess one of our cats.

I hope I did this right!

Mine hasn't been accepted yet, but some after mine have. Do I need to resubmit? I don't want to miss out! Thanks!

Challenge #6

Share your favorite cosy space!​

So many lovely spaces! Some small, some large, but all definitely cosy in their own ways. I'm glad you were all okay sharing your intimate places with reasons why you love this particular spot! The area displayed in this one along with the passage gave me a fuzzy feeling...

A warm sunset with a high tier view surrounded by the plants you love (I recall seeing a lot in prior entries!) with the choice of entertaining your friends or having a quiet place to yourself sounds amazing. The seats and cushions look plush and comfy. Accessories like the blanket, notebook, and beverages add to the warmth I get when looking at this photo. It's a real simple, serene atmosphere and the rain pattering imagery is also a scene that's certainly cosy in my book. Thanks for sharing, @dino !

​

Oh my goodness, two amazing entries!

@mogyay, the cookies are adorable! And as someone who goes to a lot of parties where baking plays a part, decorating is such a fun activityyou often end up finishing them like 2 hours later than planned but it doesn’t even matter because you have to eat them while they are fresh (and also maybe have them for breakfast the next morning). Also, just noticed the little hamster friend, so adorable!

And @dino, what a truly wonderful cozy spot. I’m a very indoor person, but even I long to snuggle up in that spot to watch the sunset or with a book or my switch or some art supplies [insert love reaction] when I saw your photo I remember just thinking ‘that’s going to win!’ Congrats!
