It's the quirky, composition and vibrancy of this seaside scene that is so appealing. This is a street photography type of image that probably wouldn't suit a monochrome look as it's the strong, saturated colours that make it work so well. Great observation and well captured!

A delightful observation of a classic British seaside image that could easily pass for a scene taken in the 1950s or 1970s! Street photography such as this is often depicted in black & white. I wonder if this would benefit from such treatment.

It's a sure sign of summer when these little creatures are busy at work. This a superbly composed and detailed portrait of one of nature's unsung heroes, with the entire head in sharp focus, despite the extremely shallow depth of field associated with macro photography.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked 1000+ in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** When the mercury rises, and those days that we longed for in the depths of winter are finally upon us, it is a joy to head out with the camera and try to capture the baking, lazy atmosphere of it all. Afternoons in the park, barbecues on the beach, sun cream deployed and hats on heads. How have you captured the long, hot days of Summer?
