I guess our friends in the southern hemisphere will have to dig through last year's photos for this one . . .

Possibly, although I don't see a problem with a 'Southern Summer' (i.e. winter) photo. Someone sent this photo in for the winter competition (from NZ I think)http://canondigitalphotographycontests.fotopic.net/p23730945.html

You know I was going to complaine about this subject title. However thinking about it some more, it could be a photo of something that normaly gets used during summer. It's a shame I don't have anything like that :(

We set a new record for heat in Sacramento. 11 straight days of 100+. Of course thats a cooling spell if you live in Nevada or Arizona. My 2 photos were taken while trying to escape the heat. :)
