Cosmos

Went out at sunrise yesterday and took these photos. Getting to know my new camera.

Click to enlarge:


A flower of a vine growing among'st the ripening maize.


Cosmos.


A weed, one of the few good things to come out of our 2nd War of Independence, (Boer War 1899 - 1902). Came with British imported horse feed from Argentina. 

Took the British Empire, at the high't of it's Imperial power, three years to defeat a handful of peasant farmers.


Cosmos flowers come in white and purple, and various shades of pink.
