July 8th:
This is the 1st day I have been able to go to the pool in over a month (yeah, I know, it's Texas & in about a week I'll be complaining about the heat, but I'm going to enjoy my sunshine happiness while it lasts). These are the essentials for pool time fun: sunscreen (a must have), sunglasses, music, a good book & a cell phone to keep track of the time so you don't stay out too long (though in my sun-giddiness I did stay a little too long today & am a tad red on the shoulders :)
The book is "The Rescue" by Nicholas Sparks

The only thing missing is a cold beer. This shot is just screaming "summer!".

Good combination of "tools." Like the black and white, but wonder if just a few items in color would give more impact to a very nice photo.

lol another Nicholas Sparks fan. I need to start reading his books I think - so many women I know are reading his stuff. Must be something good there!

Hope you had fun at the pool!

I love basking in the warmth of the sun by cool water... with all your essentials just makes it perfect! Hope the redness has worn off.

Nice arrangement and composition. I like the B&W also. For me it would also include camera and drinks.

This is great because before I even saw the comments you made I thought...Hey someone is off down to the beach (well I was nearly right)

Very soft tones and contrasts in the B&W conversions which may not be to everyones tastes but which I like in this instance

Looks like the i-pod has seen plenty of use...But please tell me it doesnt still have its original sticky plastic cover on!!!!

Nicholas Sparks? Is that right? Usually good, entertaining reading.

Nothing like a bit of pool time to relax!
