Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is "The Long, Hot Summer." As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.

Here are the rules:

1. Shots need to be taken between Monday posting and the following Monday by Sunset (Whenever that is for you ). Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Snapshots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!

2. Post your shots at any time during the week.

3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e. embedding them), but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: IMAGE POSTING RULES


That's it! Have fun! . As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.


An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO DAY INDEX

That's it! Have fun!

Wow! No posts for 4 days. I'm working on one, but the subject is not cooperating, so it'll likely be Sunday before I post it.

I'm like you, Tim.
I have a shot in mind, but the weather is not cooperating.

Looking forward to your post on Sunday!

This is not the shot I had in mind.:(
It's Plan B, due to the weather.

BLS, Nice showing of a long hot summer :)

Meanwhile in my area its not hot enough or long enough, especially on this August day with a high of 68F :(
Which made this topic kind of hard....
So I whipped this up to try to make the topic

John -- Sun tea. I wondered what was in the jug! Then I saw caption.:oops:

Klystron -- Pretty scene. And the sun does make it look hot.

75D -- You've shown what makes the long, hot summer worthwhile. Yummers!

The creek dried up early due to the long hot summer. You can see the normal waterline on the two big rocks on the left.

I had hoped to photograph the local rattlesnake sunning himself on the rocks, but he didn't cooperate.

I guess Joayne is still in the wilderness and out of the reach of technology.
So I will start the new theme.
