Heatwave?

As the warm weather continues there's talk of a heatwave.
Now, an Irish heatwave is quite different from what some of my Pbase friends experience in Australia, the United States or Saudi Arabia for example.
Here, the met office has defined a heatwave as five days of temperatures of 25℃ (77℉) in a row which is obviously not particularly hot.
I love these warm days and evenings, even if I'm tempted to wrap up in a wooly jumper at work as my desk is directly below the a/c unit and has its own micro climate.

Classic summer shot...

Classic scene and very well done. Perfect layers of light. You would wilt here in south Texas. 98 today and high humidity makes it feel like 110F. Thank GOD for air-conditioning. :) BV++

I like this silhouette. Great capture of this plant in this sunset scenery as well as of this insect (probably fly). Nice diagonals for a fine composition. Well seen and composed photo. V.

rapturous, poetic image...seems that 'heatwave' is a relative term...25C here would be a warm summer day, yet a cool one in Arizona..

Beautifully composed!!

I'd love to have an Irish heatwave here! 77* for a high sounds glorious!
This is a beautiful image Margaret! Would make a wonderful greeting card! BV

What a beautiful capture! That graceful silhouette is marvelous. V.

Brrrrr, all that heat, I can't handle it!
This is of course a beautifully arranged shot, the stalk and seeds framing the sun perfectly. Though of course the plant seems to be singularly relaxed about the warmth that it's receiving from the neighbourhood star; sharply defined and basking in it, rather than drooping from it, despite the irritation of a freeloading insect.

Even the flies are hiding from the sun :) Enjoy while you can V

Fantastic shot Mairead.
Frank Brault21-Jul-2014 21:42
A magnificent imago! Superbly composed with gorgeous colors and brilliant use of depth of field to create a magical blurring of the background. V
