These past-their-best late summer flowers still looked beautiful to me. I photographed them at Maple Glen Garden, Glenham, Southland on 31 January 2021. New Zealand.

Today Judith posted a photo taken in her garden at Spittal (Berwick upon Tweed, UK) which reminded me once more of the seasonal contrast between northern and southern hemispheres. Used with permission.

That’s just how I feel when autumn sets in – I always feel rather sad to see the summer go. But there’s always next year! 🙂
