I'll admit I trespassed to take a shot of this lilac as it's color is most unusual. It's a few blocks from where I live and I've driven by it for years saying I was going to get a shot of it, well this was the year. The bush is at least 6-7' tall and there was no way to get a good shot from the street and there is no sidewalk in this area. So tiptoe across the very well manicured lawn I did, and escaped unnoticed with a couple of images!

You are lucky they don't have a nasty dog :) Good capture of these unusual combination of pale and dark lilacs Kathy.

Hopefully that isn't against the Caedes rules, Kathy. :)
I think I saw some of these yesterday. Their odor was quite strong, but pleasing.

Kathy, I really hope that the Chicago police don't visit the Caedes site and will read your narrative. Would be disaster four us if they still decided to arrest you, lol!!!!

Thanks for the done effort in order to provide us with this very fine one!

Regards, Cornelius.

You are probably going to be on the news in a video that you didn't know was taken! LOL. Well done, Kathy.

You were far luckier than me tonight. As I was peacefully shooting flowers [irises] growing on the lawn at 02:00 hrs, a window on the ground floor opened and a female shouted: Why are taking pictures of my bedroom?!
I apologised and continued shooting. So what?! LOL

Well I hope your mugshot turned out half as good as this image. A great close up on the lilacs, Kathy. Beautiful colours and nice details in the photo.
