Through the tarp

This peekaboo look at the sky through two contrasting tarps really appeals to me. Sort of like a sneaky little window to the sky.

And now for an important announcement:

I'm delighted to announce the upcoming launch of

Each Sunday, beginning 31 May, Around the Island will be hosting a brand new summer photo project and you're invited!
.
Share your barbecues, your beaches, your cannonballing kids, that island sunset, an old pair of flip flops, anything that says summer to you.
.
We'll be playing each week all summer long - the linkie will go up each Saturday night at midnight Israel time (5pm EST) so keep those cameras handy and start grabbing those quintessential summer shots.
.
See you on the 31st for
Summer Stock Sunday!

  1. It appeals to me too. I'm excited about your Summer Stock. I'll keep my camera at the ready to capture our summer fun.

  2. I find it hugely interesting! In fact if you hadn't given it away, I'd have sat here for literally minutes trying to figure out what it was. But then my attention span would have expired.

    Guess it's time to start revving up for the summer. I usually hibernate in reverse, but if you're gonna have a summer long photo challenge... well, you know I can't resist that.

    I still say you should keep it going all year. How many times have we heard "Oh I really, really needed some summer in the middle of the winter."

    Your summer meme sounds like fun, too.

  6. Not a tent exactly - a tarp, a covering (like a big sheet) that's strung up to provide shade :).

  15. Unusual window! Crisp and clean photo with even light inside and through the window. Tents have a long history in your part of the world.
