Is this one everyone knows or do I need the guru for an ID?

Hi Tim. I think it's buttonbush, which grows right on the water's edge of streams.

John is correct it is a tired, battered, winter weary buttonbush, Cephalanthus occidentalis. I thought I'd chime in before that so called "guru" got a chance. :razz:

Best,
Don

I like the treatment you've given it, Tim - very interesting!

thanks again Don and John

Tim- I thought this was a perfect way to use a second rate photo.
