Picture This! -- Our Next Assignment

Lazy Days Of Summer
While the heat waves this summer brought lots of problems and complaints, many of us will be yearning for those torpid climes when we are shivering this winter. So, to keep the memories of summer alive just a bit longer, we're looking for all your best summer shots, those that are iconic of those "Lazy Days of Summer." This photo of beach towels hanging on the line after a long day at the beach was made from the back porch of photographer Dave Wade's house in Maine. The late afternoon light just started coming in along with a cool, evening breeze.
