We have Portulaca here in Canada too. Nice bright colours, and quite resistant to heat and drought. The dusty glass bottles were for making wine, I believe. I love the shot of the corn stalk against the old wall, and the spider you caught just to the right of the old mailbox. Great shots - I feel transported!
