Love is All Around

This photo, from the Summer Solstice Celebration, evokes the 1960's song by the Troggs, "Love is All Around." 

 "I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes. Well love is all around me, and so the feeling grows. It's written in the wind, it's everywhere I go. So if you really love me, come on and let it show"

Here we see an arboretum full of people letting love show. Here we see a man TIRELESSLY blowing bubbles for the children around him. As soon as he would suspend a giant bubble in the air, a child would gleefully burst it. Also, the man in the striped shirt would put his daughter's head into the bubble, it would pop, and she would giggle. The little boy in the tie-dyed T shirt could pop bubbles faster than we could snap photos. Truly, love was all around. 

The July Theme Day theme for the City Daily Photo Community is, REFLECTION. First, we are reflecting on summer fun and the profound sense of community felt that day. Second, we're admiring the brief reflection sizzling on the surface of the soap bubble.

What a wonderful kind of a day! At first I thought of the Mary Tyler Moore theme , then after clicking through from Twitter I found the Troggs!
Now I can go to sleep with a smile on my face and a happy song in my head!

I think this is the sweetest post for the theme that I have seen these past two days. A lovely choice, Jan!

I'm always amazed at the reflections on bubbles!

You have made me go back to my youth with The Troggs thing! Now I can' take 'With a girl like you' out of my head! :-)))
