[Leica] Friendship

[Jacky aus]

Hi Herbert,

Can we believe love also exists in animal world? Whereas sometimes, our
love is so poor as compared with them ….
Thank you very much for sharing such a good picture in friendship which
reminds me lots of things in life….

Good and warm snapshot by feel....

Cheers,

Jacky
