The Adventures of Jixer and I... to the library.

Took Jixer out after work since he's been home all day.  We went to the library to return the books that I borrowed for Linda's photos. The library has a beautiful rose garden that is in full bloom so I couldn't help but take some pics.

Please Pick Me a Little Flower

Please pick me a little flower

a little sweet scented flower 

a little flower with bright red petals

a little flower nurtured with heart 

a little flower plucked with care

a little flower to make my day

a little flower to help my tongue

a little flower to make her smile

a little flower to make my wish

a little flower for my thoughts and mind

a little flower in sorrow and grieve

a little flower in joy and happiness

a little flower to change the world.

These flowers are blooming everywhere around town. Each branch has many tiny blooms and attracts lots and lots of bees. My neighbors have a few bushes so I snuck in some pictures while out walking with Jixer. My goal is to find a small field of these in the Sacramento vicinity and have a romantic photoshoot there.
Does anyone know of a place?

What's the different between these two photos?
