Wild grape - Elizabeth Smith

Wild grape, originally uploaded by Elizabeth Smith.

A signal of summer's end, ripening fruit. It's hard to find signs of the changing seasons here in Florida, especially when the weather stays so hot through September. But... the mornings are a little darker, early temperatures a bit cooler, yellows and lavenders are the wildflower colors that dominate. Berries and fruits are maturing, and I have no doubt that the acorns are swelling as well!
