Still thinking about Summer

Yep...I'm still thinking about summer...and photography. They just go so well together. Wall Blank featured a great photograph by Aaron Feaver, and after a visit to his site I was instantly hooked. Wall Blank is neat too - they put a new limited edition print up every weekday and they're only available for one week. On Fridays, the artist donates their work and 100% of the proceeds from their print go to a non-profit cause of their choice. Great prints, great prices and for a good cause.

Check out Wall Blank's site and follow them on Twitter for updates. I think Aaron Feaver's print already sold out, but you can find out more on his site and Etsy shop.

    Thank you for this. The sun was out today, but it is still chilly. I am getting ever annoyed with the snow I thought was so beautiful only 4 months ago. I am ready for flip flop season!

    these are gorgeous! man, it doesn't seem like summer is ever coming back again, does it? I keep checking the 10-day forecast, and all I see is 30's stretching out indefinitely. depressing.

    I want to swing on those swings all by myself with no one else in sight. It would be an inspiring moment.
