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!

  7. Nice pictures. Must be fun flying in a glider, and no engine noise. I've seen them riding the thermals over the Sierra Nevada west of Reno.

  8. Is the a bird in the second glider photo?

    The project sounds like a fun idea. Thinking about what qualifies as a "summer image."

  19. Clever look at the sky! And I think I can find some left over shots from our summer...would they be valid, or are they shots that have to be taken in the current summer. It aint summer here. :))

  24. The new meme is a great idea!! I'd love to join but I'm already doing Weekly Winners, and I'd hate to loose some of the friends I've found there? But maybe I could include a SS Sunday picture just for you? I'll see what I can do, my friend!!
    I absolutely LOVE that shot with the swallow and the plane, boy you must have been so fast with that camera, swallows are so hard to capture!!
