Restoration - drummer
by David Williams

Summer can mean outdoor projects and this one was long overdue. I guess you could say this is a self portrait. Framed the shot, set the exposure and timer and there I am. Somehow our dog knew where to be as well.

Yep - a summer project. I can relate! Well done.

Nice deck!
This really is a summer scene, all those jobs that have been waiting the good weather :)

Nice composition, I am a dog lover so that gets my attention more than anything. - Michael

David, our deck is long overdue for refinishing. Are you available? Do you like Indian food? (Bribe, bribe, wink, wink) :-) --Stefan

Thanks Brad and Shirley.
Shirley, the blue balls are light fixtures covered with blue painters tape.

You do have a wonderful deck there David. My son built a deck from scratch last year. I thought he was crazy but it is done and beautiful. The thing is with your deck, which is also very lovely, is you have woods out your deck. This is a wonderful summer shot (good doggie!) and I think I and Brad should just come hang out on your deck. HA! What are the blue ball like things? Are they lights for night entertaining?

I really like this, I wish that I had a deck, the I could keep up and restore, (and having a dog wouldn't be so bad either), alas, in an apartment in NJ,
