This week’s Photo Challenge is Humanity, set by Thirdeyemom. She writes: “The more I see the world, the more I realize that although people are different, we’re very much the same.”
Although sometimes I do wonder if we’re all the same species—

This week’s Photo Challenge is Summer.
As it happens, I’ve already posted a couple of summery posts just this week, here and here. But here is another take on Summer.
Cromer, Norfolk, England.
More photos are here.
And my second response to this challenge is here.

Update, May 25, 2012: A week later, it turns out that the theme of the official Photo Challenge is also Summer. Ailsa and Sara should really coordinate a bit better! On the other hand, I have my entry all ready:
_______________________________________________________
Ailsa of Where’s my backpack?, who stepped into the breach and organized last week’s wildly successful Alternative Photo Challenge on the theme of “Reflections”—and then found the time to look at the hundreds of photos and answer the hundreds of comments that flooded in—wants to do it again!
This time she’s proposed a theme that combines her love of travel and that of the summer now upon us, at least those of us in the northern hemisphere…
As soon as I saw her double theme, I knew I had just the photos for her! I offer you… the English summer holiday at the seaside!
Lonely as a cloud
The traditional pony ride
Wetsuits of August
Please, let’s have no indignant defenses of the English summer. I know what I am talking about!
(Or, if you must, do first review the categories that this post is listed under…)
More photos are here.

That first glimpse of the sea instantly shows what the day will be like. The sea sets the mood.
That day at the beach may be just an ordinary Sunday at the seaside
or it may be stormy
or dreamy…
