Happy Early Foofy Friday Everyone

Captured these gorgeous 2 tone lilacs on May 30, 2016 (Monday) down on the boardwalk which is along the St. Mary's River downtown. This boardwalk is also part of the Hub Trail which runs behind the homes here in my neighbourhood.

I just love these 2 tone Lilacs and would like having some in our backyard. Such a rich colour plus the wonderful fragrance, but can't have them inside my house, good old allergies.

Bringing more detail out in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 then used iPiccy.com to bring it down in size.

Thanks you for your comments and friendship. Hope you enjoy the view.

Have a marvelous day, ♥ Skates ♥

PS: Sorry I took down yesterday's post, I just had my doubts about it fitting into the contest and decided to delete it. Thanks to those who had a chance to view and comment on it.

Lovely color tones, lighting. A good DOF in this shot that separates the lilacs clearly from the background.

My favorite flower and they bloom for such a short time! This is such a cheerful sunny shot, and I do like the two-toned variety, as well. Great lighting and DOF.

I've seen the 'common' blue/purple and white lilacs, but never these very special ones, Pat. The well chosen lighting has even enhanced their beauty.
Perfect entry for Foofy Friday, my friend.
