Crepe myrtles

When my mother moved from New Jersey to Florida, she missed her lilacs and put in a couple of crepe myrtle trees the color of this one.

Shot with a Pentax manual 50mm F1.7 lens.

They do look similar, and if you squint your eyes, you can fool yourself, but the scent is not the same! Pretty composition here

So pretty

Very pretty- I miss the lovely gardens of my childhood home. The soil here is pathetic and rocky. Nothing grows- I think even a Crepe Myrtle would have a tough time growing in it. Nice shot.

Love Crepe Myrtles when they are in bloom
