Wow. I really like this. Makes me want to run and fill my own garden with lavender and wait for the sunsets.

Lovely photo! You’ve reminded me to pick some of my own, as we’re due for our first frost any day.
Enjoy your spring!

Nice composition; I like the random lavender colors; they add much to the lighting.

It is not a very common or obvious shot. Thats an additional value added to make this a “one of a kind” Photo. Just love images that completely fill all visual space available. Thanks for sharing.
