Virginia creeper vine in a hackberry tree

Virginia creeper vine shows a striking red color in a hackberry tree.  The leaves of the hackberry tree are turning a bit yellow from the changing season.  The vine is one of the Virginia creeper Parthenocissuses, either Parthenocissus quinquefolia or Parthenocissus vitacea, I don't know which one.  The tree is somewhere behind the People's Brewing building on North 9th St.  Picture taken October 8, 2011.
