In the treasury of morning light...

 

Anne-Sophie does it again! Another perfect photo image. Capturing the moment? Strangeness and Charm, Colour and Form. Mysterious message...Izzit Art?  

Favourite of the week.
The beans are hidden by the tangle of leaf. They won't slip past my greedy gaze. The more we gather now the faster the last flush of flowers will mature. there is plenty of new flowering growth. The present harvest is being done with secatures to avoid recklessly damaging the mother plants.Scragging the plants is unavoidable in the last days of harvest. Not worth too much worry. We will pull out the woody supports , the decaying foliage and stalks will be laid where it stands now to act as a mulch, keeping in humidity driven by constantly rising ground heat. The Earth is cooling. Make the most of it.
Chayot, a hardy traveler climbs the beans. Young sprout plants preparing for frostier times.A few carrots ,(stragglers) and a small patch of Parsley, with just a smattering of Calendula. Room for more stuff...? You Bet!
I'm not bored with beans, they are a highly sociable vegetable.In the one foot margin at the base of the runner beans, Courgettes, Cosmos flowers,out of the picture, Butternut Squash,Cabbage, Capsicum Peppers and bright yellow Tomatoes.
