Wow what a difference, both pictures are great. Global warming is sure having it's say.

@Judy: Isn't it though? and don't even mention it my dear Judy, I can't bear the thought of losing my son, so my heart goes out to you...
In two cases, not possible to wear a spring ...

Cool!I should say that it was totally contrary here in Iran!This year spring is much more warmer than last year.Exactly inverse of your shots!

@drphoto: Nature's equilibrium...we should be more attentive :) Thanks a lot Dan!
Spring will seem even more special when it arrives this year for you!
(PS - I loved your translations on the blog. My wife is Parisian, although not born in the city, and still manages to make me smile after 20 years of living in England when she comes out with a literal translation of a french expression)

@Ian Bramham: You've said it Ian lol ps thanks a lot, personally, except for poetry, half the time I think the literal translation make a lot more sense, but then who would need translators, n'est-ce pas?
the same as here, lor :(

@laughingwolf: No getting away with it Wolf :)
Reverse warming, i guess. I'm very impressed by your water landscape from last year. Excellent, Lorraine.

@Michael Skorulski: Hey Michael, well like I said, if there is actual global warming, it sure is playing a joke on us ;) Thanks a lot!
That is a terrific pair of shots. Really shows how the world changes year to year.

Le poisson d'avril est dans l'eau ou sur les monts enneigés? La photo de 2007 est superbe Lorraine!
1 Apr 2008 2:38pm
@standley: Allo Richard lol le poisson d'Avril est celui q'indique 'global warming' contre sa propre théorie ;)
Nice comparison!
1 Apr 2008 2:54pm
@Ina: Thanks a loy Ina :)
Eh oui les années passent et ne se ressemblent pas. Conséquences de l'inconscience et de la folie des hommes ??? Ces 2 photos sont pour moi le symbole des caprices de la nature qui nous met en garde...

Wonderful and humorous way of making a fool of the weather. Both are fabulous images, such a contrast indeed. Green grass a year ago, amazing. Hopefully you will see the green very soon.

Somebody from Quebec told me there were over 5 m of snow this winter in the area!!!!! WHEN and IF spring comes (???????).......aren't you going to just.....drown?! I worry, you see!
2 Apr 2008 10:00am
@Japanalia: Flooding is a big concern in everyone's mind, where is all that snow going to go? No worries dear Lady, I can swim ;)
well it certainly felt like winter was hanging on for you...now it's official! Perhaps your summer will ruyn until Christmas ;)
