My childhood house had two huge lilac bushes right outside the living room/patio area. Every spring, the air was filled with their sweet aroma. It became my favorite flower and still is to this day."The story of lilac, according to Greek mythology, begins with a beautiful nymph named Syringa (lilac's botanical name). Captivated by her beauty, Pan, the god of the forests and fields, chased Syringa through the forest. Frightened by Pan's affections, Syringa escaped him by turning herself into an aromatic bush – the flower we now refer to as lilac.

Lilacs are frequently considered a harbinger of spring, with the time of their bloom signaling whether spring will be early or late. In the language of flowers, purple lilacs symbolize the first emotions of love."

I am based is Northeastern California in the High Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. I specialize in nature, architecture and abstract. But, if a subject captures my attention, I capture it. For me, photography is how I remember the world through my eyes. It gives my peace. When I am photographing, I forget everything else around me and lose myself into the capturing of a memory. It’s just me and the subject. I am honored to be able to share my world with you. 'Savor the moment to last a lifetime.' Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and images. My images are taken from the heart. https://twitter.com/MellissaRay Note: The "Fine Art America" watermark does not show up on the final product.
