Summer memories: Our readers show off their photo skills

The kids are back in school and the weather forecast calls for a week’s worth of rain.

Summer doesn’t officially end until Sept. 23. But let’s face it — it’s over.

All we have left are memories, reflected here with five summertime photos submitted to our Reader Photos page on Heraldnet.com over the past couple of years by Snohomish County residents.

You’ll have a chance to see more photography by Herald readers in the coming weeks, as we put together an occasional “best of” offering of reader photos.

In the meantime, you can browse all the reader photos, and submit photos of your own, at Heraldnet.com/Life. Look for the “Reader Photos” link.
