purple lilac and lime green acer in 'sunlight'

Took this shot a couple of days back as a precautionary photo - just as well as no sun today nor does it seem likely that there will be any.
Nice light coming through the new leaves Hazel, nice composition too.

Lovely lime green acer ,always brings sun light to the garden -love the way the lilac peers over the wall !! And guess what !! no, I have not got any lilac BUT my neighbour's lilac is not out yet ----just come to the conclusion that we are slightly later than you !!!!

So pretty against the new leaves!

It's amazed me how quickly the leaves seemed to have sprouted on the trees this last week or so, a couple of warm days really did push them all into first gear!! Lovely shot Hazel and wonderful lighting.

Not really open enough yet to smell, in a few days I hope. I do love the scent of lilac.

Thank you for all your comments. Amazingly the sun has come out this afternoon, so now, not being greedy of course, I'm hoping for a sunset!!
