awwww!! what a spectacular, my friend!
these are absolutely stunning! love the good old uk!
i thoroughly enjoyed your post.
gorgeous header, too.
happy summer!
I like that Solstice sun, but my favorite shot in this set is the house on the water. That's one of those postcard-perfect types of shots!
Mac: Fun shots of the summertime. I certainly enjoyed your show.
What a collection! Enough to do the whole summer not just the start. Beautiful sunsets and moon and all the rest as well.
Summer looks great in Merry Ole England! Magnificent sun and moon shots! (I was sorta expecting Stonehenge.) Love the pomp and pageantry you have. (Ours ramps up around July 1.)
You forgot to show the grey clouds and rain. That's summer these days. At least its got warmer now, even if the sun doesn't make much of an appearance
Make sure you don't delete these pics - you might need them in the depths of winter! Btw, you will have a great time in Scotland - you will have your camera permanently in front of your face!!
Now that's the summer in England. Magnificent shots Stewart, love them all.
Wishing you a great day,

Oh wow - what an amazing set of shots. The sun is stunning as is the house reflected in the water and that duck with the sun on its back.
Summer in England is colorful and full of fun.
I love the duck conducting the orchestra. I think I will rename him "the Conducktor. "
My favorite photo of all of these is the red white and blue jet trails. Spectacular....
A beautiful header ! Are you sure we are in summer, we still hadn't spring, lol ! Lots of activities going on in your region, I have also been at Trooping the color (on my sofa)
ice cream is always a good idea! :) Wonderful set of images dear Imac, thanks for sharing!

You seem to have lots of summer fun already - which is as it should be. A very nice summer to both of you!
These are great. Your treatments are really powerful.
The duck seems to be conducting the beginning of summer!
Love your Summer collection! Some spectacular shots there.
Impresionantes fotos de la fiesta de tu verano.
un abrazo
