We both have plantscapes for our sky shots this week. What lovely lilac. I have a similar one in my back yard - when it blooms I know spring is in full throttle.

Right next to lilies of the valley, I agree. Nice capture.

I certainly agree about the smell. Only thing better is rain after a dry spell.

Can't think of anything better either. When the Lilac's are going to flower it must be summer sending flowers ahead.
