[Leica] Wednesday weeds

[Don Dory]

Greetings to all.  This week starts with a play on color and then moves to
vines.  The prickly pears are doing unusually well this late in the season;
some are even blooming a second time.  However, this was just a delight in
the vivid green:

While walking in the neighborhood I heard a large number of bees, they were
swarming these blossoms with one too slow to escape it's picture:

During the same walk these berries are quite lovely:

On an earlier walk I noticed this faded morning glory, I didn't have a
macro lens so probably a 75% crop:

Obviously the season is changing and some vines are withdrawing chlorophyll:

Different day but the same fence as the previous morning glory.  I really
like SonC's darker color pallette and have moved in that direction here:

All the best.
