Lilac Festival - near Carleton Place


Each year, Franktown has a Lilac Festival in late May. They are blooming like mad that time of year, and the smell is almost overwhelming. I couldn't make it down this year, but was in neighbouring Blacks Corners taking a full weekend course. This is from the lilac bush across the road from us.

At first I had no idea the bumblebee was there, but then I noticed him. This shot I quite like. Had fun getting a focused one though. The wind was blowing quite strongly, so everything was bobbing around like mad.

Can you smell the scent of lilac's??
