Awesome August 27

One of the things I will miss about summer is the bright colors, but I won't miss the heat!!

[Karen Williams]

Great idea - fabulous swirl of colour.

[Sondra Sarra]

Very nice composition and colors. We all say we won't miss the heat but when it gets to -30 up here in New England I defiantly miss the heat.

[Sally Ings]

Great pov, and I cannot wait for the heat to arrive. I have had enough of the cold wet winter weather!

[Jennifer]

Love the colours on this. Great pov!!

[Kerri]

Great colors

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@kandernob Thanks Karen! I took this shot ahead of time when I was at the beach the other day. It's my friend's beach umbrella and it did a great job of keeping us out of the sun.
@shuterfly Thanks Sondra- oh I know you folks get some cold weather up there! We're not too far behind you in the Poconos sometimes.
@salza Thanks Sally!
@jesperani Thanks Jennifer!
@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!

[Maggiemae]

Looks a huge umbrella and I can just imagine lying under it on the beach! Heaven!

[Colleen]

Agreed! Great colors!

[Paula]

Great colours!

[👑 AnaZad]

By now you might know I love colors, so I really like this shot.
I don't like the heat and humidity of the summer as well.

[Patty J]

Beautiful colors!!

[Cathy Donohoue]

Gorgeous colors and POV and idea.
I will miss the colors also - but never the heat of this year.

[Elizabeth Youngs]

Great pov and colors!

[Sandie Reardon]

This is fabulous! Nice splash of colors and an interesting point of view.

Thank you everyone! I'm trying to shorten my time on 365 to please photograph widower (you know like the football widows of the fall only for 365) so I must do this blanket thanks! But please believe me each and every comment means so much to me!

[bkb in the city]

Cool perspective Ann :)

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@bkbinthecity Thank you Brian!

[Leana Niemand]

What a great shot, love all the colours.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@leananiemand Thank you Leana!

[summerfield]

the heat had been good for my arthritis, but not for my temper and patience. i love these colours; this umbrella sums up summer.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@summerfield Thanks Vikki! It was nice to spend one of the last days of this summer "down the shore".

[Phil]

What a wonderful brolly! Almost a colour wheel.... I think it would make any day feel sunny :)

[Ellen Young]

Great , Great Shot Ann! Love the Colors!! The major reason i will miss P.A. is because the weather is so cool here compared to TX!! So i cant say i will miss the heat here!!

[Livia]

I like the colors! 8) It's summer all year here. 8(

[Laura]

Great image.

[Dione Giorgio]

I love the bright colours of summer and I will miss the heat when it's over. The heat makes the sea even more beautiful and summer is no summer without a dive into the refreshing Mediterranean

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@filsie65 @ellimae @myautofocuslife @la_photographic @sangwann

Thank you all! I would have liked to include a shot of all the other "brollies" too! It's so colorful at the beach- but color is why the next season is probably my favorite! That and the cooler temps!

Dione the Med. is lovely- I've had the pleasure of dipping my toes in it a couple times (but I wasn't there in the warmer months for a full out swim like you do each day!)

[Joyce Wells]

I love the bold colors of summer, too - but I won't miss the heat and humidity we've had this past month! I agree with you - my favorite season will be coming up soon - spectacular colors and cool crisp days!

[Nicole Campbell]

This is such a fun photo Ann. I can't wait to kiss winter goodbye and welcome summer with open arms. :)

[Carole Imes]

Fabulous fun color wheel type shot. Our summer goes on for a couple more months yet. Not many changes until late October-early November. This is a terrific theme idea!

[Netkonnexion]

Wow. Lovely colours. Nice job.

[AutomaticSlim]

Excellent colourful photo Ann, very summery.

[PamSnaps1]

Gorgeous colors Ann! :)

[Anya]

I love all the different colors, nice shot!

[Allison Williams]

Great perspective on this wonderful sun-brella.

[bruni]

Love your POV and the colors are just smashing..yes some of the colors will certainly disappear but then we'll get the glorious fall colors. it has started already.I
posted a collage of what I found on our walk this morning. I also love the fall when the days are nice and sunny and the mornings and nights are so refreshingly cool..another reason for getting up early and outdoors.

[Tanja Carda]

Love the pov, colors and composition =)

[Linda Torrence]

Love all the bright colors, nice shot.

[Wendy Bowden]

Cool rainbow, lovely & bright

[W.MARK HATCH]

yes, this is an awesome shot, well done.... love the colours!

[Bev]

I love all of the colors. Very pretty. Very clear. Great POV as well. Well done!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@sparkleplenty1 @nicolecampbell @cimes1 @netkonnexion @automaticslim @potsbypam @acousticlover @allie912 @bruni @tanja_1211 @granny7 @wenbow @mhatch @prttblues

Thanks to all- I was so exhausted when I got home yesterday, I pretty much cooked dinner and went to bed!! I so appreciate the comments and encouragement- 365 is my lifeline to this these days- so I can't tell you how much they mean to me!

[alia_801]

Pretty colours :) I'm not sure what happened with your posts either - we seem to have been missing each other for a while!

[Edie]

Love this bright shot...great framing.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@alia_801 Thanks Alia. I have been so overwhelmed with comments and feedback here, I've started to view just the shots of those who've commented on my pictures. It has freed me up a bit so perhaps I missed your icon- whatever I'm glad I thought to just go and look! The elephants are a fun series and the flowers are looking great.

@edie Thanks Edie!!

[Henri Russell]

Lovely view of the colors of the umbrella. Great perspective.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@henrir Thank you Henri! The sun really lit up the colors.
