The original photo is the one in the middle – it was taken at night, there was a purple spotlight on the bush of Chinese lanterns.

That’s another name for the common chicoree. I also like the name “coffee weed”.

There is this strip of flowers next to a field and I make a point of driving there at least once every September. Normally cosmos are garden flowers in Germany, a couple of clumps at most. This strip – possibly 200 metres long, 2 metres wide at most – is a place where they are allowed to grow wild and it reminds me so much of the highveld in South Africa where in autumn white and pink cosmos fields stretch into the distance.
