Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
I would like to share some autumn pages in my city with you.
Ears of rice are mature. It takes five months from rice planting to reaping.
This is a rice combine having two functions of reaping and threshing. In old days, of course, farmers cut stems with a toothed sickle. They had to stoop for a whole day during the reaping.
In this field, straws are bound and put on the ground for drying. Farmers would cover a pumpkin field with them in summer.
A silvergrass head is a symbol of autumn. We used to offer this plant to the full moon with steamed rice flour dumplings at the autumn moon festival held on 15th August in the lunar calendar.
Flagrant orange-colored olives （Osmanthus fragrans）are in full bloom. The season is from end September to early October. They are planted in house gardens and parks.
I like to ride a bicycle and catch the autumn fragrance in my city. Chinese people in some areas put these flowers in green tea.
The flower is small and looks like sleeping with a smile.
This tree is silver-colored one. It's rare to see this kind now.
Silver kinds open their flowers earlier than golden.
The full opening shape of Osmanthus fragrans is a small cross.
