i saw it first







You should have seen me trying to take these. You would have been laughing like every other person that walked by. When I first saw these flowers floating in the fountain I thought, "camera" ... Coco thought,"yum!"... Unfortunately, Coco has never learned playground rules. You remember number 3, if you see it first, it´s yours. (that´s right after share your cookies and take turns on the swings.) I definitely saw them first! That didn´t stop her, though. Every time I turned my back, she´d try to steal the flowers. It took me forever just to get these. And, of course, when I finally let her take the flowers, she didn´t want them anymore... Which rule is that?
Have a happy weekend!

oh, jane, these are stunning pictures! i'm afraid you might have to fire poor coco as an assistant! i am trying to get the visual picture - did you actually have to hold her on a leash while you snapped the shots? how in the world???

That's why blossoming trees are so magnificent: their flowers don't last very long, just the time to admire their beauty!

jane, i think the rule is called "forbidden fruit [or flowers in this case] tastes sweeter..." that's one smart doggie, Coco! once again, you've captured the essence of Spring...it's amazing that it's come so early in your neck of the woods...here in Philly, we're still clinging to the last vestiges of winter! auuugh. but i've seen sightings of cotton voile worn in 40 degree weather...i call it wishful thinking!

happy Spring! keep on snapping...your pix are so contemplative and meditative...you've got such a depth...[who woulda thunk it?] haha..just kidding you know that! : ) ...stay peaceful & joyful!
