It's Autumn

And just like that it's Autumn. It doesn't feel much like it in Cincinnati with our 90 degree temperatures, but it will soon enough. I bought some new coneflowers for the garden yesterday and have been shooting them this morning. I love the vivid colors they are going to bring to the garden, and the depth of the colors make me happy. I really have enjoyed buying new plants to plug the holes in the garden that Maggie left behind on her bunny hunting. She'd have a field day with the ones we have now - and not in a good way

This captures the crushed-velvet textures of those petals so well.
