June Editors' photo challenge is now open: Chasing Summer

Visitors soar through the air on a ride at the Washington State Fair. I captured this photo while shooting a sample gallery for the Ricoh GR IIIx, which – unsurprisingly – proved to be an excellent camera for candid photography. To me, this photo embodies both the essence of summer and the magic of a cherished American summer tradition: state fairs. Photo: Dale Baskin Our June Editors' photo challenge is now open for submissions. Our theme this month is "Chasing Summer." With summer just around the corner, we want to see photos that evoke the spirit of summer fun and adventure. Whether it's jumping into cold water on a hot day, melting ice cream, or epic road trips, we want to see what "Chasing Summer" looks like through your lens. Our favorites will be featured on the DPReview homepage later this month. This challenge is open to photos taken at any time. Photos can be submitted between Sunday, June 8, and Saturday, June 14 (GMT). Important: Images MUST include a title and a caption of at least 25 words to be eligible. We want to share the story behind your photo. We will consider both photos and captions when selecting our winners, so make sure to tell us that story!
