Summertime by onewing

Summertime

The weather forecast for today said we were going to have rain. As you can see it didn't happen.

Still waiting for the cool change to arrive. I just looked up the current temperature on Google and it is still 29 degrees C this evening.

I just love that, even in the middle of summer, our local beach never gets crowded. Shh! don't tell anyone we like to keep this beach a secret.

WOW you really are having ongoing hot days (and nights). Very, very cool in Melbourne today - top of 21!

Beautiful scene , so idyllic . The title ,immediately brought to mind the song Summertime from Porgy and Bess -- "Summertime and the livin' is easy, Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high " I shall be singing this in my head all morning now aw we shiver on a very frosty morning in the UK !!

That is a stunning beach, we spent some time today at the lake and it was lovely sitting by the water in the breeze.
January 14th, 2017  
Looks gorgeous, much better than the wind and rain outside here today!
January 14th, 2017  
You are so lucky to have such a beautiful unspoilt beach! Lovely shot & love those clouds building....

Stunning seascape Babs, this heat wave is bad..32 C here at 7.35 pm
January 14th, 2017  
summertime - sweltering - I can't complain though because I have whinged about the last however many years of miserable summer weather - this feels like it did when I was a kid!
January 14th, 2017  
Superb composition with the sea leading the eye around the image, its a beautiful seascape Babs:)
January 14th, 2017  
Yes, Babs - keep it to yourself - it looks so beautiful with that pale sand!
January 14th, 2017  
Nice shot.
January 14th, 2017  
you are lucky to have such a wonderful beach so close by. lovely composition
January 14th, 2017  
It's been very hot and humid here too Babs but we got a tiny bit of rain today which was nice. Beautiful beach you have.
January 14th, 2017  
This really shows off the summertime in best possible way!!!
January 14th, 2017  
We're on our way Babs!!! Had snow yesterday in UK!

Lovely quiet beach, that's great. A little chilly here at the moment, a good snowfall last night, but its almost all gone today.
January 14th, 2017  
A lovely beach shot, sorry to rub it in, Babs, but I'm loving our unusually mild Summer weather :)
January 14th, 2017  
Very inviting Babs, so much better than a crowded beach!
January 14th, 2017  
Wonderful composition and sky scape
January 14th, 2017  
Beautiful beach scene. It looks so inviting.
January 14th, 2017  
Beautiful peaceful beach scene Babs.
January 14th, 2017  
Beautiful shot
January 14th, 2017  
A lovely beach scene
January 14th, 2017  
While I don't love freezing temperatures, I have to admit that despite how beautiful this scene looks, that many warm days in a row would get to me more than the same number of cold days.
January 14th, 2017  
What a lovely beach!!
January 14th, 2017  
You are lucky with your summer temps and beautiful beaches. We are still waiting for summer!
January 14th, 2017  
Terrific scene :)

January 14th, 2017  
A beautiful summertime scene Babs :)
January 14th, 2017  
Nice shot Babs

@gigiflower Finally gone cooler today. 23 degrees at the moment. A much more comfortable nights sleep last night.
January 14th, 2017  
@beryl I thought the same as you Beryl when I wrote the title of this picture. Glad it made you sing.

@nicolecampbell @inthecloud5 @leggzy @annied @pcoulson @megpicatilly @leestevo @cruiser @cherrymartina @gamelee @merrelyn @radiogirl @seattlite @mittens @thistle @bkbinthecity @carolmw @twinsplusone @gilbertwood @maggiemae @dawnee @suesouthwood @danette @pyrrhula @hermann @terryliv Thanks everyone. Much cooler today, so we have some respite from the heat. Only 23 degrees this morning. May need to dig out the thermals, ha ha. Will get much warmer later in the week again though.
January 14th, 2017  
@happysnaps Yes, its the evening heat that is the killer isn't it.
January 14th, 2017  
@bella_ss Still no rain here.
January 14th, 2017  
@lyndamcg You are more than welcome Lynda. My sister lives in the UK, she won't be pleased with snow. She hates the cold weather.
January 14th, 2017  
@paul10 Thanks Paul. I hate crowded beaches too and this beach is only 500 steps from our house. We try to keep it quiet. We live outside the tourist area so it is quite easy to keep a secret.
January 14th, 2017  
@taffy I agree, we don't usually get so many really hot days in a row and after three days of intense heat it does get waring. It is much cooler today though so we have some respite. Only 23 degrees C (73 f) this morning. Positively arctic.
January 14th, 2017  
The weather is up and down like a you-know-what and is driving us crazy. One or two hot days then back to low twenties, the poor old body doesn't adapt like it used to. Love your beach, wish we were near one of those. But we're not, so the Barwon will have to suffice.
January 15th, 2017  
Great looking beach I can see why you left the UK Skegness never looks like that!
January 15th, 2017  
What a beautiful beach and it looks so inviting. Wouldn't mind being there- even with your heat!
January 15th, 2017  
29 in the evening? That is far too hot for me.
January 15th, 2017  
@golftragic Thanks Marnie. Finally cooled down today. We have had a lovely cool day.
January 15th, 2017  
@rjb71 Ha ha. I remember Skegness. We went there once on a Lincolnshire Road Car bus and I am sure it had square wheels.
January 15th, 2017  
@olivetreeann It has cooled down again today and we have had a lovely day. We don't usually get three or four days of high 30's temperature in a row, so we are thankful for the respite.
January 15th, 2017  
@yaorenliu It was a bit hot for us too.
January 15th, 2017  
A beautiful beach scene - quite a contrast to our cold grey days!
