Maria Rose: A Prime Collection

 After a prolonged period of no rain, we finally enjoyed some showers this week.  Yesterday, I had an opportunity between showers to capture the above images.  I had some fun editing them in Picnik. I have several favorites.  Which photograph is your favorite?

Here's another installment of zoo photos.  The lionesses were so beautiful as they rested and guarded their man.  I need your opinion...Do you like the black and white or the color photograph of the first image?

 Have a safe and restful weekend!!!
