So many blushing and bashful ponies! While they may be a little embarrassed right now to be loved and to love is a wonderful feeling. Sure, there is certainly some pain involved now and then, but it is worth it in the end. To be loved by family, friends, or even secret little admirers it is always nice to know that you matter to someone.
With our shipping prompt primarily out of the way we managed to net 145 ponies tonight which brings us up to 984 ponies altogether. Hopefully the shipping didn't scare any of you off!
Now, onward to our prompt for today! One thing I have regretted about having the NATG usually during the summer is that we miss out on a bunch of cool themes that only make sense during different times of the year. While summer can be pretty great so can the other seasons too that's why for today's prompt I would like you all to Draw a pony enjoying your favorite season / Draw a pony whooping it up in town.
Let's see if we can't put your background art skills to the test with these two! As always you can find our compiler here.
Max Image Resolution is 2000x2000! Resize your pictures to make sure they are the appropriate size, any image software should be able to help you.
Animations do not animate when sent through the compiler! Include some text with your submitted animation that people should follow your links to the source to see the animation in full.
Remember, our compiler for the old prompt is up a few hours even after this post goes up with the new prompt so feel free to submit your submission to the previous day's submitter!
Also, if you are late submitting and the submitter is closed, don't just throw your pic into the next day's submitter. Wait for a Makeup Day to submit!

1 Admirers can be quite cheesy, but why should that be so bad? - Zeal Crown
4 Equestria Daily Artist Training Grounds 2020 06 - Meto30
I can't not ship my OTP with this prompt. The question "I" asked Sunset in the text is, of course, invisible, because what I'm saying does not appear in the text, only Sunset's lines do. This touches on the fan comic I had been planning since the latter half of ATG2018, and I want to develop that into a full-fledged comic, although at this point Equestria Girls shipping feels like a bit of a dead horse. As I've been told in Getting Back to Art 2020, I should do what I want to do, not because it will be beneficial or be met with enthusiasm, but simply because it is worthwhile.
8 Sunset Snuggles - EbonyCrystal1986
Since the day he confessed his feelings for her, Artistic Spirit and Ebony had gotten even closer than ever, especially on their date nights together, which always started at sunset by their favorite tree in Ponyville, mostly just enjoying the view and each others' company. Soon it would be time for Princess Celestia to lower her sun and for Princess Luna to raise her moon in order for their night to truly begin, but of course they didn't mind the wait since plenty of snuggles, kisses and nuzzles between them were to be had, and to think that was just the beginning!
16 Thingpone has a Crush - flutterkind

Even a hybrid pony has his special somepony on sunny day.
34 ATG 2020 Day 06 - Renarde-Louve

Twili has a secret admirer...not too secret

36 Secret RainbowDust - NotADeliciousPotato
ATG Day 6 — Draw a pony crushing on another pony / Draw a pony with a secret admirer.
I would imagine that ships with rivals tend to be the ones where secrecy is involved the most.

37 Appledash - Yelowcrom
Unfortunately I had to draw it in a hurry but I hope you liked it anyway ^^
39 That Fluttering in your Stomach - Th3iPodM0N
40 The confession - Froodiz
Twilight:"What did you want to tell me, Fluttershy?"
Fluttershy:"I, uhm..."
She's just a bit nervous

42 Kiss for Caveman-Pony - Ragmo
Caveman-Pony was brought to our time by Starlight when she was jumping through time, trying to find the right moment when the sonic rainboom happened - she needed a couple of tries .
Eversince he has a crush on my other OC (... still without a name...). Back than she was a bit confused, but she warmed up to him, and they had a good time at the gala. And now - i think things are happening.

44 Amore bing shy - Soobel
Actually i started with this pic while ago but theme fits to 6th day so i finished it today.
50 Starlight's crush on Sunburst - Daimando
For this one, I decided to drag out not just Starlight, but also Sunburst. Here, we see Starlight giving her smoochy kins a nice crushing hug(Well not crushing, but you'll get the lovely picture).
56 Love Note Language - Termyotter
Couldn't think of much for a crush. Then did what I figure is a joke done more than a few times. Then started to develop a bit of a story for the pony/changeling I've been using the last couple of these challenges... :)
59 Oblivious Starlight - Martin AKA MachoPony
Oh trixie, your love will be unrequited until you speak to her.
60 Bugbutt's Admirer - dzamie
Worry not, frozen queen, you are not forgotten. Perhaps this trickle of love will burst you from your cell, or perhaps their words fall on deaf ears.
62 - Lorewolf
"Oh Twilight, THAT pose! You never would have guessed how many decades it took for me to make that look natural for more than a few seconds... But then, I seem to remember catching you practicing it in front of a mirror long before you even had wings. *sigh* How long must I wait for you to ever see me as something other than a mother figure... Someone to be like rather than be with."
70 Zephyrs Doom (Uncoloured) - Rapidsnap (Gary Mitchelhill)
A coloured in version will appear on a catchup day
73 Love Letters Finds Her Perfect Match - midnight-anomaly
This is the first one I've had plenty of time to work on and was the most fun so far! The first thing the prompt made me think of was one of my favorite fandom songs, "Love Letters" by Griffinilla and Toastwaffle
Then I realized, who better to ship Love Letters and her abnormally long neck with than Long Glimmer? Of course, Trixie might have a thing or two to say about that.

78 It's a Classic - Pony4Koma
The trick to make a "Crash-Into Hello" work? You need to make it look like it was acidental...
84 Twitterpated - Skypause
"Black Lives Matter" should be a minimum. Black lives (and other POC as well as LGBTQ+ lives) have contributed enormously to this fandom.
Inspired by Bambi (the movie) and my cousin's family.
Kind of frustrated by my shading in this one but overall I really, really like it. I think I still have a LOT to learn though.

89 Crushed/Crushing? - Joyous Tempo
These two are awesome together!
93 Crushing Too Hard - Pone-Dancer
In this smol interaction Shock Top got some tickets to the annual Flower Festival. He gives them to Mayflower since she'd like them more than he would. To his delight, she asks if he'd like to come along! The rest is self-explanatory XD

101 The Game's Up There Sweetie Belle! - Kyanicu
SweetieMash was too cute to not draw given the prompt
103 Violet Eyes - Cornerback Fluttershy

All great weird romances have to start somewhere, and for Patch it was quietly admiring Windy from across the classroom.
114 - Twilightning Storm
115 - RealShadowGrave
118 After Perytonia - Still Waters
After an adventure, "Crushing" on each other might be putting it lightly.
120 The Crush - Frith
Today's achievements: draw a fat pony, draw a leaping pony in pushed perspective, draw a pony on his back, and, take the idiom in the prompt literally. Oprah Whinny (Whoa Nelly in the ring) is about to flatten Snowflake (neigh Bulk Biceps) with her signature move, The Crusher!
121 Big Mac and Cheerilee - Faith?
122 Pony Kraushing on Another Pony - Raincloudboom
Scene from the Incredibles 2. Krausher with Screen Slaver goggles on crushing Violet Parr's force field.
125 Hanahaki Disease - Binky T.
