Weekly Photo Challenge: TOGETHER

I remember sitting anxiously watching the school clock count down to the last bell of the last day of a long school year. Ten, nine, eight, seven,…now I’m racing down the hall and my ears are buzzing with the happy chattering of other kids as I burst through the front doors to freedom. I gather up my friends and TOGETHER we gleefully babble about the upcoming break. Summer vacation is finally here.
This photo was taken during summer vacation in late August in Pukaskwa National Park in northern Ontario. “The Chef” and I had just come back from a hike when we spotted some local kids gathered TOGETHER for an afternoon swim. The air temperature was hovering around 20°C and the water temperature around 15°C but it didn’t matter to these kids. They had the exuberance and invincibility that comes with youth.


Beautiful shot. This would be very appropriate for this weeks theme of ‘summer’ as well. The water is so clear … no wonder the kids are gathering to swim in it.
great memories
Wonderful photo

Nice “together” photo
Thanks for visiting my blog!
Sweet shot!
Wow, I love the look of the place. Nice photo! The waters are so inviting. And it would definitely be more fun enjoying the summer together with your friends or loved ones, not to mention, you can have challenging swimming races together and all that.
The Lake Superior area has some amazing scenery.
beautiful landscape, water, swiming together and more fun
Oh, to be young again and hanging out with your friends.

Wish we were getting more sun here in Toronto!

The water’s so clear!! Lucky you, you’ve been there
Yes, I do feel lucky to have been there. It’s kind of remote so not a lot of people go there. I found that it had a spirituality to it.
Cool… almost looks like someplace tropical with the blue water…
Yeah, doesn’t the water look so enticing? But brrrrr!

Wow…those waters are amazing. What an exciting adventure…
Around Lake Superior the water can look like you’re in the Caribbean but it’s too bad the water is so cold.
It’s a great interpretation of this week’s challenge. Great work.
Thanks Arindam!
That’s a great water photo. I keep looking at all the patterns
