Kids are returning back to school, and the leaves are slowly losing their green color. Yes, it seems the long and balmy days of summer are coming to a close. As the summer feeling fades away, the people over at National Geographic asked its photographers to help us hold onto the last of the season with a look back at their favorite summertime scenes.
From Arctic sea ice to Chinese train cars, from family memories to solitary moments, the 23 images they shared each tells a different story of summer. Take a look here to see this beautiful gallery of summer photos.
