Photo Theme: The Things We Do in Summertime

2012 July 6

Streetside lemonade stand? Berry picking? Walking down the street just sweating our ears off?

How we live and what we do day to day, is all part of this. Your snapshots will create a picture of life. It’s a time capsule of today and of our quality of life we’re experiencing in an environment that’s part naturally created, part influenced by us.

Now, this picture isn’t going to take shape by itself. Right now submissions of gorgeous vistas and ornery pumpkinseeds are outnumbering the everyday scenes all around us. Turn the camera to the tourists for a change – or take a main street view on your way through town. Documerica was loaded with photos of people doing things. It’s that simple. This modern version is no different, only in the fact that you can be a part of it and because of that, it’s bigger.

Enter photos taken from 2011 through 2013 of our world, our environment as you see it.

    Dear Sirs:

    I AM GLAD YOU WERE PLANTING TREES. I WISH MORE TREES WERE PLANTED IN IBEROAMERICA ALL THE TIME. TREES ARE FABULEOS.
    ON THE OTHER HAND, I HAVE LIVED IN PANAMA FOR MOST OF MY LIFE AND HERE THERE ARE A LOT OF VERY HOT DAYS, HAVING TO SHARE SOME OF THIS ACTIVITIES IT IS FANTASTIC.

    THE MOST INTENSE FREQUENCY OF LOVE AND THE BEST OF THE COSMIC IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD, LADY GOD, CRISTS, SORORS AND FRATERS,

    MAXIMA

    Summers are a great time to have fun and have loads of pictures. And somehow, summer pictures are more refreshing, colorful and lively than the winter ones.
