Summertime Sights / Day 16: Busy Doing Nothing.

Day 16 in a set of summertime pictures for July.

The heatwave continues, with no end in sight. So in celebration, the whole month of July features the UK summer in all it's glory.

Anyone fancy this as a permanent lifestyle? Beautiful scenery, fresh air, warm sun beating down...busy doing nothing...

Fancy a go at this week's ETSOOI challenge? Then why not have a stab at producing a picture around the theme of SENSES. It can be all of them or just the one, either sight, sound, taste, touch or smell. All you need to do is just create a masterpiece with the editing and submit it as an entry. Just tag your shot ETSOOI-14, you can enter as many times as you like, maybe one shot for each sense? Full details and time constraints can be found here:

If nothing else it can be a bit of inspiration for one of your shots this week :)
Errrr, yes please :)
Nice shot to :)
