Here's a classic late summer image snapped yesterday on my way home from my walk along the seafront. This Sunflower (Helianthus) reminded me that autumn doesn't actually begin until the equinox on the 23rd September (next Tuesday). Then summer will officially be over. Our summer this year has been exceptionally nice. It seemed a little warmer than usual. I hope yours, in whatever part of the world you live, has been as pleasant.

Same Summer in Stockholm, much warmer than usual. Today is said to be our last warm day for a long time, nice sunflower photo.
We had a Pacific NW summer here in coastal MA. We had a few hot/humid days but far less than the last 3 summers since I've been back. It was gorgeous. I was outside walking and taking day trips constantly!! I'm kinda sad to see it end.
Gorgeous sunflower. We are up island from you and it has been a great summer weatherwise but with severe water restrictions. We could use some rain.
