end of summer flowers....bittersweet!

I was out in my yard today, mowing and pruning and admiring those end of summer flowers in full bloom.  I love the sunlight here in the northeast at this time of year.  it casts pretty shadows in the afternoon and is a softer light than in mid-summer. 

Can someone tell me how to dry these beautiful hydrangea?  I have not had much luck doing so in the past.

 I love these Rudbeckia or Brown eyed Susans!

Here's a little morning glory that I planted late in season and has sprouted.  I love how they are in full bloom in the a.m. and fade as the day goes on....a little bit like me!

Do enjoy the rest of these beautiful late summer days.
