Vines climb over the wall of an old building in Charleston South Carolina. Charleston, the port city founded in 1670, is defined by its cobblestone streets, horse-drawn carriages and pastel antebellum houses, particularly in the elegant French Quarter and Battery districts.

test roll with Apollo film by Dubblefilm - pre-treated Kodak Gold 200. Right bottom corner anomoly - perhaps a leak from the pre-treatment - no other negs are affected. hmm...
Its about as big as a pea. This adult is pretty harmless. Problems arise when it lays its eggs amongst bedding plant or young shrubs. The white maggots eat the roots and the plants suddenly wither and die.
Bags of compost and peat used to have an insecticide added which killed the grubs. European law stoped this, so these tiny brutes are flourishing.
The Brown Vine Snake (Oxybelis aeneus), is a neotropical colubrid snake found from the Southern United States to South America. Arboreal by nature, this species occupies a number of different habitats across its range – including near human habitation, like this individual photographed in my garden. Growing up to six feet in length, their extremely slender body and brown colour allow it to expertly camouflage among the vines, twigs and branches of plants; giving it the local name of “Horsewhip” for which it superficially resembles. They are diurnal hunters with large eyes and binocular vision, used to accurately spot and hunt prey. It is rear-fanged and mildly venomous, but only to the lizards and frogs it primarily preys upon. Bites to humans only result in a minor itching sensation and are considered harmless. Trinidad & Tobago,W.I.
This vine presents lovely purple flowers that resemble snap dragons. It grows in several places around our property, usually close to the river.

The sun, doing a fine job of defining a vine with its September morning light. lt is interesting to me, that a vine "knows" how to create, position and pack its leaves, in order to capture just the amount of sunlight it needs. I think this is just common ivy: Hedera Helix. Let me know if you think it is something else.

Spotted this critter wandering in the garden - guess that's not a good thing for the container plants! (May be worth viewing large)

Late afternoon near the town of Murviel les Beziers, in the Herault region of France. I had to stop the car as the sky and afternoon light were just amazing.
