Last gasp of summer

There are almost no flowers left on Capitol Hill these days, but I did stumble across a garden that had lots of zinnias (I think they are) in bloom. I really should go back and see how it's doing, but it’s far too hot and humid for even that short walk of a few blocks.

Best to view in "Original" or “Auto” because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
