A Summer’s Day

It may not be summer (who am I kidding, it’s not even spring) but yesterday at the library this book popped out at me from the shelves when I wasn’t even looking for photography books.  It’s called A Summer’s Day, by the photographer Joel Meyerowitz, and if you ever see it sitting on a shelf don’t let the cheesy ’80s swimsuit cover fool you.  It’s full of pretty, evocative photos that will make you daydream about lazy summer days spent somewhere on a beach in New England.  They’re beautiful photos that my old scanner (and no-good scanning skills) just can’t do justice to, so if you ever come across the book do check it out.

    Awww, i think these pictures are beautiful (even though you think the scanner didn’t do it justice). they must be something in person! Must look for it the next time i’m book shopping.

    I love the wooden table, woven chair on the porch and with all the painting utensils…. ahhh one can dream.

    thank you for sharing :)

    I found one of his books when I was a teenager some years ago, also by chance, and ended up completely in love with it. I love the photos of quiet seaside towns x
