Summer ending

These may be the last summer flowers from the garden. This combination has become my favourite: Cosmos bipinnatus, Lathyrus odoratus and Lavandula stoechas. Not that they are the perfect match but they have quite many of them all august and september. My daughter and I have picked many-many. I'll definitively keep growing them in the future. Knowing the frost sonn will wipe out all my summer efforts in the garden I find comfort in the orchids starting to bloom indoors.

I must show you one more thing. About 20km from where I live a nice old little house has become a victim of the flames. The only thing left is the chimney and the old tile ovens. I just had to capture it with my camera.
