Half full or half empty

these days, when I walk round the garden, I see one of two things.  One is the garden full of decaying flowers which need clearing away and the ground readied for winter.  The other possibility is that it is full late summer and early autumn colour which has its own beauty.  When I see the former, I think of work to do and my back twinges.  When I see the latter, I simply enjoy.

Today I saw the latter.

Cooriedog accompanied me as usual.  I am sure she thinks I am looking for something which she will immediately covet.
