Oh yes I can, it's such a beautiful shot! We were having a mother's day party in my parents garden last Sunday, and I could smell the fragance from where I was sitting, I just love it, it's such an old fashioned scent!

I have lilacs set as my desktop background on my computer at work. So I'm right there with you. Nice post for L.

I much prefer them in pictures than my backyard. Ours are budding, but no blooms.
