nice angle of shot, focus, composition and presentation, but the colors and contrast need some pop up, the flowers look pail and not natural
thanks for sharing

Galia,
Thanks a million for your review.
The colours are exactly as they are in reality this is a Wild Lilac, not a more colourful hybrid.

Your camera settings bring this take to life.
The color range and lighting of the take are well balanced and contribute nicely to the overall eye appeal of your composition.
DOF is excellent for the subject matter. There is strong detail across the entire image.
The framing of this composition is not cluttered and speaks well of the subject matter.
Thanks for sharing ... B-)) Bob

A very fine shot. The image is artfully cropped and I like the natural background. The color of the blossoms is beautiful and I imagine the scent is on a par with the view.

Comment from Sange
Wow! 30 feet tall!
It's like as tall as Jack's Been Stalk! :)
Very nice Capture Susan. I especially love the large green leaves and the way they frame/hug the lilacs.
Nicely done ;)

Neil,
Thanks a million for your great review on my Lough Gara Lilac.
It's difficult to get a picture of the bush on it's own because it's behind my Mulberry & Smoke Tree. I can taken pictures from my bedroom but that only shows part of the canopy. The scent is wonderful

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
A visually soothing & refreshing bunch of healthy florets! Spring has sprung!
Sharply focused with
Fine features & soft textures.
Verdant backdrop lends a cool contrast.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Comment from nikman
You have clearly been doing a grand job with this plant, well done! Your full and central composition gives us a grand look at it. The photo is well exposed, sharp and provides a lot of enjoyable detail. Nicely taken!

Nik,
Thanks a million for your great review & kind words. I just stuck the slip I took in a pot & forgot it. Was about to throw it out when I noticed 2 new leaves. Kept repotting for 2 years before planting it in its' present place.

Fred,
Merci beaucoup mille fois for your review.
If you look again I re-posted the picture, minus the black line that I had only seen, when I was copy righting the picture.
