Hot Fun - Summa' Time! - (enlarge)

It was the end of July last summer and just so hot out. We had taken

the children to the Zoo that afternoon, but it wasn't long before they

wanted to be home cooling off under the Sprinkler. Kael was having

a grande time daring to get closer and closer to the 'stinging spray' of

the lawn sprinkler. I did increase contrast and sharpening to bring out

the expression on his face and the force of the water. This one is for

their Scrapbook. (any visits and comments are always welcome, best

always, Gail)

Looks like a great time with a grandson!!! It really looks great today as I watch a blizzard piling up snow outside the window. I think I'll look at your happy grandson quite a bit longer!!

Great capture, Gail. So much fun and enjoyment taking advantage of the refreshing water to douse the summer heat.

After a bit of time I'm happy to meet you and your works again!

A beautiful and lovely shot with very nice lighting, Gail!

 

Hi Gail,

  Wonderful image with great colors, lighting & details.  Take care, Patsy

great pics of youth and wonderful summa's...great lyrics...regards....David

Excellent post processing accentuates the water!  Well done!

Nice moment, Gail. The way you have scaled up the contrast flattens the image and really emphasizes the brightness and heat of the day.

Many thanks Jack for your input on this image, truly appreciate your feedback.

Kindest regards, Gail

Each of you provide  excellent support, input and encouragement, truly appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Warmest regards, Gail

The Blizzard is the reason I went searching for summer images Warren!!! Anything to remind me that we did have 'exasberatingly hot temps'!!!! Thanks for your visit Warren.
