One of the things in this world that can make me happy is finding a great picture. Today as I was cruising around the internet, I found a couple of photos that I just loved, and so I felt the need to share them with you.

This first one amazed me, reminded me of New Zealand and made me long for a trip home to visit my mother and sister. It’s a beautiful shot and one that arouses the wish to become Mary Poppins and be able to jump into a picture. Mind you, I imagine if you jumped into this one, it’d be a long drop.

This second picture made me giggle and just warmed my insides. Oh to be that elephant! At the risk of being thought completely insane, I honestly see a look of pure joy on that creatures face. When is the last time you experienced joy like that? When is the last time I did? To think that something as simple as water could make something or someone so happy is astounding, and yet here you have it.
