I remember when I took this shot, Aug. 4th 2013, that it was a very hot day. I don't know why this guy was sitting in the sun instead of finding a shady spot. The tents are from a festival that was going on at the time in Fremont, Ohio..my home town. The steeple is St. Joseph's Catholic Church. ....maybe a contest entry...maybe not.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

This would be an excellent entry Jim - I like the verticality of the shot and the wonderful textures.

Good capture of the church steeple between the trees and against that sky Jimbob. Nice colours and quite an interesting shot.

The guy in the red shirt is probably wondering the same thing; why did he venture out on such a hot day. A fine entry for the contest, Jimbob.

A cool, I mean hot, touch of Americano JimboB.
It would make a good entry. I like the laid back style which suits you to an Iced-T.

I really like this shot Jimbob!!! I think that it would be a great entry for the contest. Love the composition - the church and steeple balance out the trees - the guy sitting out front rounds out your image nicely. Nice work - Well Done Jimbob!!! Good Luck!!!:-):-):-)!!!

T shirt and shorts weather hey Jimbob, I'm looking forward to that!
The church steeple is prominent in this shot while the flags and canvas roof indicate there's a public event going on.

Maybe a contest entry... well everyone has slightly different opinions on this contest I suggest you upload a few more images and follow your instincts, that's what I'm doing anyway. (o:

Excellent composition and view, that is one really tall church steeple, maybe he just wanted to get away from people. Gorgeous colours and post work, I think this would be a super entry and Good Luck

Very nice JimBob. Another fine photo taken in what seems to be a very nice town.

The steeple looks seems to be in the exact center of the photograph, the time showing 870 minutes into the day.

Anyhoo, very nice.

The guy was staking out a spot to sit for when the shade moves with the afternoon sun. Or maybe he was too baked from the heat to move any further.
Good composition of the scene and capture of the old church steeple. Best of luck in the contest.
