Hi all,

Please post all entries in this thread.

The subject for this month is 'Summer saturation', photos taken in wet conditions from any time or location. Given the the weather so far this summer it made sense to make the most of it!

2. The photo can be from any year.
3. The image can be photo-shopped to some extent, levels changes, cropping, sharpening etc are all acceptable.

If you are unsure, please PM a moderator.

Nothing too spectacular, but I bet this guy wishes he hadn't set off from home almost as much as I wish I hadn't taken the camera outside.....
