Sunlit Sunday






It is cold, rainy, dreary.
The perfect time to look at some photos from a sunnier day!
Off to one of my favorite places and the beautiful Lady Lions at the zoo!


Snooze time!

Wishing you well and much joy!

    Good Afternoon Snap, A beautiful photo of a lioness. Like you, the day is grey and raining, so I cannot join Sunlit Sunday. Maybe next week. Have a lovely Sunday. Best Wishes Daphne

    Isn't that fun? To be able to look at your photos of a brighter day? I can almost feel the warmth of the sun looking at that sleepy lioness.

    Lions are such magnificent creatures, Snap. In repose, they still embody a sense of power and strength. Thank you for sharing these beautiful photos at Sunlit Sunday.

    Lovely light shining on the lion. I could curl up and have a nap there too.
    Thanks for visiting me and your nice comment. I rarely see those sunrises either because I like to sleep in.
