Blog > Weekend giveaway: MOO!

  icon

In the northern hemisphere, summer is slowly but surely turning into fall. Children are off to school, the air is crisp and colder, and our faint tan is slowly fading away… What did you do this summer? And did you take some nice pictures?

For this weekend’s giveaway, we want you to share your summer memories with us. Post a link in the comments to your best summer photo, a photo you took that simultaneously embodies what the season means to you and that you think would look good on your next batch of MOO postcards!

Our photo would probably be this one, from the Bearpit Karaoke on Mauerpark, where we spent many lovely summer afternoons:

bear2 moopostcards

Now show us yours! :)

This giveaway is generously sponsored by MOO, suppliers of lovely printed goods. Three winners will receive a voucher for 20 postcards, to either print their photos or choose from MOO's range of ready-made postcard sets.

Comments will be open until midnight UTC September 25th. Good luck!

PS – Postcrossers in the southern hemisphere, please share your Winter photos!

Summer for me means discovering new places, or discovering new things in places you already know...i have been in the highest mountains of Slovak republic for many times, but only discovered this special place: two romantic lakes (Lakes of Love) this year. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/299664_2497728282006_1216844893_33026212_1591787395_n.jpg

A beautiful trip to the northern tip of Europe, with lots of nice, sunny days, and one very, very misty day (of course the day we visited the North Cape!). This picture tells that story. Dutch readers can read the whole trip on my blog (http://www.hjplantinga.nl/). Driving up the the cape was rather a challenge I will not soon forget.

This one would be mine. My idea of a perfect summer day: being out on the water, back to basic and being outside all day, completely forget about time, eat self caught fish, jump out of the boat for a swim, watching stars at night and finally fall asleep while feeling the boat gently wiggles...

Well, as my holiday in France did not went as well as planned (got an car accident; had to drive back in a rental and the car followed on transport :/ ), I did not really get a change to take nice pictures over there.

So I'll go with this one:

Every summer there is a contest called Sjezenrijden. There is a course with 3 or 4 rings hanging over it, a male & female (and sometimes kids aswell) sit in a chaise that is towed by a (draft) horse. Everyone has to wear traditional clothing, the chaise needs to be decorated with real flowers and the horse needs to be decorated aswell! The horse needs to trot around the course while the female tries to get all the rings with a lance! I love to watch it, take pictues and pet the horses, ofcourse :D

My first time in Europe. Bruges, Belgium offered the kind of charm rarely available elsewhere.

Hope you can see it now.

This pic I took at the beach perfectly illustrates my view of the world -- any word you write in the sand will wash away with the tide, but only if you get close enough to the water. Likewise, any risk you take, any time you jump into something, any time you stand on the edge and decide to go over it, whatever happens will change everything... But in the end, it's all your life, and there's no such thing as "going back." Embrace what you have and keep making those changes! It's my favorite pic of summer specifically because I've gone through a lot of those types of changes this summer, and it's been my best summer in years!

Summer for me is often about simple pleasures and discoveries; in this case, a mulberry tree along a favorite bike path in the city. http://www.flickr.com/photos/wintertraveller/5923456893/in/photostream

This summer, I've been on a canoecamp in Sweden. It was fantastic. Such a beautiful country and a great group, I made a lot of new friends. I love photography, so of course I took my camera with me. I'm happy the camera survived and now I have a lot of beautiful memories :)

It may not be much of a photo, but I love The Cloisters in Manhattan. It's part of the Met Museum and includes medieval gardens; hard to believe this spot is in NYC. A great escape from the bustling city:
