Here are a few of the photos I took last week at the Lilac Festival.
If you want to see more...especially lots of candid PEOPLE pictures (and more Rusted Root)... here's the link to the whole album:

First, the mandatory "LILAC" pictures:

Great festival pics! How was it this year?
I didn't make it out there this year because of work overload, but did stop buy quickly the day after to shoot what was left of the lilacs.

We just went the one evening to see Rusted Root...but it was a spectacular evening ...felt like summer had arrived...everyone (except you apparently) showed up to enjoy the weather!
It was packed! And the lilacs were blooming.

I have never photographed lilacs before. I just never found them photogenic. But both Kelly and Mikell have each got a great shot there. And all I have at home is boring white lilacs so I had to try and get a little creative on this one. So here is what I came up with. Got Lilacs?
Got Lilac's?

That's wonderfully creative!
must have been a pleasantly-scented shoot too.
