Weekly Photo Contest: Summer travel

To celebrate the grand opening of our new Photography forums, we're bringing back the weekly photo contests! As before, it's a great way to show off your skills taking great pictures with an Android phone or tablet, and there's always a great prize attached.

This week, the subject is summer travel. Take any picture. It could be a Panorama, a Zoe, a Photosphere, etc., just something that you feel captures the spirit of a great summer getaway. And the prize this week is something that everyone will be interested in -- A Developer Edition OUYA console, with two extra retail controllers.

Entering is easy. Just drop your entry in a post below. Tell us what Android you used to get the picture, and any back story you want to add to it. We'll pick a winner Tuesday (July 16) night at 11:59 PM ET, and announce them on the blog with next Wednesday's contest.

• Pictures must be taken with an Android device
• Pictures must be uploaded to the contest thread. I'm not running all over the Internet to track them down.
• You have to tell us what device you used to take the picture, and any special software you might have used. Editing your pictures is fine -- this is art.
• You must have used a valid email address to register here at AC, so I know how to contact the winner.
• Only one entry per week per person.

My 8 month pregnant wife and I traveled to Boston (our last hurrah!!!) to see Sir Paul McCartney tear down Fenway Park on 7-9-13

Amazing to see a living legend at 71 perform better than anyone that is currently on tour!

This is a picture I took on a recent camping trip with my stock rooted Galaxy S3 and the default camera app.

To me, camping is the quintessential summer getaway. This picture was taken on the north shore of Lake Superior, at Split Rock Lighthouse State Park.

This picture was captured as is, with no post processing.

I was driving by the Washington Monument and noticed that it was all lit up. So I stopped and took a picture with my Sprint HTC One stock camera app.

Title: 24L
Captured With: Galaxy Nexus
Edited With: On phone software
Story: The wife and I headed across the county last week to reconnect with some of my best friends (LAX-STL-ROC). Started the trip by taking off on runway 24L at LAX. Notice the Korean Air A380 on the taxi way to the left. The plane is a monster.

Assuming that was directed at me, thanks! Feel free to use it for personal use.

Got this shot on my Honeymoon recently. Was walking along the beach when I noticed some birds flying towards me. I was just about quick enough to capture some of the birds mid flight

Thanks....for whatever reason it didn't want to reply to your pic
