*The Stones*

Description


I have always said that there is more to photograph at the Zoo than animals....

I found these colored stones in one of the many gift shops - Kids get to select stones that are from this container that they can then use to make bracelets and necklaces. I didn't make any jewelry but I did see the photo-op!!

Little Girls LIVE to have a chance at stones and beads like this. Our eyes would light up and the world was perfect! :)))) This is such a fun photo, Jeff, and at first I thought they were really gourmet jelly beans.
