Bliss

Lilacs last spring
Oh, how I love lilacs. If they were here now, I would hold them to my face and breathe in their heady aroma. Oh, but I can wait.
If they were here, though, this is what I'd do.
SkeletalMess textures (both new downloads at Shadowhouse Creations): Vintage Tinted Lens, soft light @ 80%; Scratch the Surface 5, hard light @ 60%

Mary took the words right out of my ... fingers! What a wonderful sight Kate. Just beautiful.

I have to say, my biggest problem I face with textures is which ones to choose! The photo may look good in the end but then my mind says 'well maybe it would look better with different textures' and so it goes.

Lilacs bring back fond memories for me of the house we lived at in Idaho. I had lilac bushes surrounding the house, white, purples and one pink. Simply beautiful!

Me too have bunches of photos of them too. You've actually made me think I should do a photopage as well. Very inspirering.

I love them, but they don't grow well in MS.

Beautiful photo.
