Hello there, this is Tracey Clark. Welcome to Picture Summer.

Back by popular demand, we are taking the idea of Picture Spring into the next season. So what is Picture Summer? Well, it's an e-class which means that each day in your inbox you will be greeted by a photo and a simple yet poignant prompt that will encourage you to look at your life a little differently, and then you will be encouraged to use your camera to capture it.

Since summer is one of the more lighthearted of months, the prompts for this season will be more playful and splashy to help you get the most of summer. Once you shoot your pictures, Big Picture Scrapbooking offers a wonderful place to share your image with other classmates in the galleries, and will also be featuring one of those images at Shutter Sisters as well, which is a lot of fun.

I really do hope that you decide to come on board for Picture Summer. I promise we will have lots of fun as we work together and spread our creative wings. As they say at Big Picture Scrapbooking…this is big!
