We got there in quite a hot week and was not even possible to go out of hotel during noontime. So one day we just bought this beautiful pink flamingo and made quite quick photoshoot just in a water pool of our hotel in Larnaca . There was not so hot like outside on the street :) Enjoy! # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfSkGtJsLtcGYjcViFXiGHHxUrEEce49fDEkS8dVnTC3p/image.png) # Category Portrait/Fashion Camera Canon 6D / Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 G2 / Natural Light # - **If you want to see his entry blog, click here: https://steemit.com/summercontest/@axeman/my-entry-for-the-we-love-summer-2019-photo-contest-pink-dream**. # # # https://onceuponatime935.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/blue-flower-gif.gif # # ## Finalist number 2: @harlhana # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYgvcXL3nHDa5KBwizW5oauFVuDmCKZjSmZpJSTXRccNw/image.png) # This place located at Cebu,Philippines.One of the best hotel resort that i've ever stayed with.The food and service was excellent.They have two big pools then there is also infinity pool near their private beach wherein you can do snorkel.I really recommend this hotel beach resort.Hope you you like it. # - **If you want to see his entry blog, click here: https://steemit.com/summercontest/@harlhana/my-entry-for-the-we-love-summer-2019-photo-contest**. # # https://onceuponatime935.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/blue-flower-gif.gif # # ## Finalist number 3: @estefrodriguez # ¡Hola a todos! Esta es mi participación en el tercer día del summer contest creado por @flamingirl . Espero que disfruten la foto. En esta ocasión les presento Playa Blanca, ubicada en el Edo. Sucre - Venezuela. Este hermoso lugar alberga una gran variedad de vida marina en sus cristalinas aguas, exóticos peces y corales. Es una isla rodeada de riscos y acantilados, lo que la hacen un paisaje extremo. Es sol es implacable, pero te puedes refrescar perfectamente en esta piscina natural. # https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNw5LwWvqmhnhcL5jB8LBeUq8NJhk24egJXryfC5WW8VS/10479978.jpg # Fotografía tomada con cámara Samsung S860. ¡Gracias por ver! # - **If you want to see his entry blog, click here: https://steemit.com/summercontest/@estefrodriguez/3kmtmn-my-entry-for-the-we-love-summer-2019-photo-contest**. # # https://onceuponatime935.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/blue-flower-gif.gif # # ## Finalist number 4&5: @betterthanhome # ENTRY 1: This is my Entry to the 4th day of My entry for the 🏝 WE LOVE SUMMER 2019 - PHOTO CONTEST # https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcmX8soubLQ4rzLNyDX2x4YqBnRqiuCYjhnYJXne8EaBk/PB160984.jpg # I took this shot at one of my favorite beaches worldwide. It´s in the Noosa Nationalpark in Queensland Australia. It was last year during the australian summer. When europe is still in its hibernation, the beaches in Australia are the place to be, especially of they are as beautiful as the Granite Bay in Noosa. Ich habe diese Aufnahme an einem meiner Lieblingsstrände weltweit gemacht. Es ist im Noosa Nationalpark in Queensland, Australien. Es war letztes Jahr im australischen Sommer. Wenn Europa noch im Winterschlaf ist, sind die Strände in Australien der richtige Ort, besonders wenn sie so schön sind wie die Granite Bay in Noosa. # - **If you want to see his entry blog, click here: https://steemit.com/travel/@betterthanhome/my-entry-for-the-we-love-summer-2019-photo-contest-day-4**. # # https://onceuponatime935.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/blue-flower-gif.gif # # ENTRY 2: # # This is my Entry to the 5th day of My entry for the 🏝 WE LOVE SUMMER 2019 - PHOTO CONTEST # https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfEEMVCabYHaQk9Cbfb8q5BDgZLaWeS6eRmpxmaKjJAxk/P1040165.jpg # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSxB1wK4ca6AxWUPrPj2W7dMXY8AaAD8HUuYHNreFCMJr/image.png) # During the australian summer between december and march, the color of the Blue Lake in Mount Gambier, Victoria changes into a breathtaking blue. It´s still a conjecture what causes the change of the color, but it has most likely to do with the warming of the surface. When I first saw that Lake I couldn´t believe my eyes. Während des australischen Sommers zwischen Dezember und März verwandelt sich die Farbe des Blue Lake in Mount Gambier, Victoria, in ein atemberaubendes Blau. Es ist immer noch eine Vermutung, was die Veränderung der Farbe verursacht, aber es hat höchstwahrscheinlich mit der Erwärmung der Oberfläche zu tun. Als ich diesen See zum ersten Mal sah, traute ich meinen Augen nicht. # - **If you want to see his entry blog, click here: https://steemit.com/travel/@betterthanhome/my-entry-for-the-we-love-summer-2019-photo-contest-day-5**. # # https://onceuponatime935.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/blue-flower-gif.gif # # ## Finalist number 6: @gingbabida # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcQrDihep3oih4iRbganyvGU2GRJvZnc7ofZPudjeEaEb/image.png) # Summer is best spent with good friends. And so we did. We planned a quick summer getaway with friends. So we hidded out to our favorite spot -- Marabut, Samar. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYFrwcpAydgLuXWRVRsQs2SM1ZcEwxDVX8tjUqyx12eLX/image.png) # This is just an ordinary public beach, with no cottages whatsoever. We just placed out mats under the shade, and that was it. But you know, "its the persons, not the place." And so with this bunch, it was truly unforgettable. # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfZMotQEgKXdGyK8h5D1ukC8joJsHodV6sjS9tS2Cnnqb/image.png) # We ate, slept, played, swam, and hiked, which I think was the best part of all. It was a short hike, maybe 10 minutes or so, but the steep climb on a pointy rock with no trail was challenging enough. However, the picturisque view on top took our breaths away. It was worth all the climb! # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTPBwqbqVsM2p17iKFnPiGg7h6gUn5C74fSzPiyXMn4F6/image.png) # # It was indeed a day of fun--a summer to remember! =============================================== This is my entry to WE LOVE SUMMER 2019 - PHOTOCONTEST, initiated by @flamingirl.

I do not like to sit still, and in search of beautiful views I decided to climb the highest point in Krabi - Mount Khao Ngorn Nak. The road to the ridge passes through the jungle, and the length of the ascent is 3.7 km, and the approach to the waterfall is 4.7 km. It took me all day to ascend and descend; this was not a bad exercise stress. But it was worth it.) # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmThUD7iwF8SGDVAvyAmfRQnGUuF6pwbN4kMHxoEF4rLHP/image.png) # From the height dizzy, but the view is gorgeous. # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmV511jCDNx9f2L1dQGDqQCBd6Q16GZBn9fAAtuhTNMvZg/image.png) # All shades of green # ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNXwshv1vrCsJqW7YDYgQyx5UwgtUt6pNQGiSR6oSbcYN/image.png) # In the process of climbing.
