 Impulse shot of my nephew doing something I consider very summer-like. Who hasn't done this? :)

Hey - I wanted to say thanks to all of you who commented and voted. This was a first attempt, and I can see where this kind of feedback will be instrumental in improving my work as a photographer. I hope to offer better pics as we move along. :)

As for lead in the hoses... yeech! I didn't know that. I tell ya, there's just no being a kid anymore. Yikes.

Definitely says "summer" to me. A larger picture would be better, and if you could have positioned the model so either green grass or blue sky were underneath the hose that would have helped convey summer more.

For this challenge, I would have liked to see more of the hose. It was hard to see without the title prompting.

Watch out -- they say there is a high volume of lead in hoses today. If you want to drink of them, buy ones that say they have no lead : ) or let them run for a few minutes to get the water sitting in them out...Best!
