This week’s short story challenge

This week’s writing challenge is the last for a while, and revolves around a photo I took of detail in Sir Peter Jackson’s amazing Gallipoli diorama – an exact replica of the Chunuk Bair battle above Anzac Cove, complete with 5000 hand-painted and posed model soldiers, mostly built by local wargamers.

Use the photo to inspire a 150-200 word super-short story – a proper one, with beginning, middle, end and punchline (all super-short stories gotta have a punchline) – and post it on your blog, with the prompt photo and a link back to this blog for others to pick up and join in the fun. of course the story can be about anything.

The only word is wow... Close-up I took hand-held with my SLR...
