Summer is here and the heat is unbearable, I wasn't super busy this month but still managed to capture a lot of images. I was mostly busy doing other things like traveling to my nephew's baptism, I can now say that I'm a godfather. I once again got blasted by the sun at the 14th Annual Rosewood Crawfish Festival, at least until the rain came then I got soaked. It was a fun month, I can't wait to see what June has in store for me.
