As I opened up this blog to start writing the words that came to me were those from the song by Ella Fitzgerald.

Summertime and the livin’ is easy
Fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy’s rich and your ma is good lookin’
So hush, little baby, don’t you cry

This months featured artist and guest highlight was chosen by Katherine of Cobert Photography and she chose the image submitted by @a_winterroth for the following reason:

I just love everything about this image, from the sun glowing through the linens on the clothesline, to the flower crowns on the precious children. It embodies everything wonderful about a slower, more simplistic and intentional time. It’s simply serene and beautiful.

Congratulations @a_winterroth for being the Featured Artist for the {Summer Sun} theme.

“My life is shaped by the urgent need to wander and observe, and my camera is my passport.” — Steve McCurry

Don’t we all, as photographers, feel that way at times. I know I speak for myself and most likely all the other ladies in the group, that when the opportunity arises to wander and observe, I am all for it, especially if it involves a passport. This month Lynne Grant Photography chose this {Quote} for us to blog on.

Covid has really restricted us the past two years, and I know I am about ready to pull out the passport and get myself on a plane and to do some traveling. In the interim, I know we all are confined to mainly local and making the most of what we can do in our immediate area and where we can travel by car.

This month I am excited to see how each one of the blog contributors has interpreted this quote.
