I saw my first lilacs this week - a little late but not by more than 10 days. They smelled so lovely!

Lovely shot of the lilacs basking in the sun Kathy. Nice colours and a good DOF in this shot.

They are in blossom for a short while as too many people run and break the branches and carry whole bunches back home where they die almost at once ! People are so stupid to break them, destroy instead of enjoying their beauty and S M E L L ...!
Thanks as I had not time to take any pics of ours before they were gone - literally! [ggrr]

---They smelled so lovely!---
That's right Kathy. Their fragrance is overwhelming. I can know it because I have four lilacs trees in my garden (a 'heritage' of my late wife).

We've had some lilacs on our bush this year. They are the wife's favorite.
Good shot.

Well you have me beat by a couple of weeks. But then again I don't have any lilacs growing in the yard. So you win this round. A lovely capture of the lilacs, Kathy. Beautiful colours and lighting in the photo.
