  2. I like the subtle color of the lilacs. It also makes me think a bit of my youth - we had lilacs in our yard.

  14. Beautiful photo! I love lilacs.

    This reminds me of the big lilac bush my mom had in her garden when I was growing up. As you walked towards the garden, the smell met you and walked the rest of the way with you.
    thanks Beth.

  15. Ah yes, lilac season here too. All the shrubs seem to be flowering and I'm sneezing my way through spring!

    That's a very pretty shot and your lilac isn't making my eyes tear. :)

  18. What a variety in the colors of the petals!

    Are you hanging laundry out already, or did you hold that up for contrast?

  19. @Dawn: actually this one was taken indoors with a white cloth behind to capture the pink tones.
