Here are a few plants I haven't yet been able to identify. Some of these go back to a couple of years ago. Photos 2 & 3 and 5 & 6 are the same plants in order to provide closeups of the flowers and a view of the stems and leaves. There are 5 different plants for the 7 photos. All plants are from North Central Indiana except photo #7 (Valerian?) which is from Western Pennsylvania.
#4 - probably, Helianthus mollis. Thanks for the most informative point of view - that is how asteraceae should be photographed.
Thanks for everyone's help. Almost gave up getting an ID on these. I never saw any of them again. For the 2-3 that I tried to locate at a later time, they were gone so I couldn't see how they had developed. As far a photographing Helianthus mollis from the most informative point of view, I did so more because the pattern on the other side of the flowerhead looked so striking and unique. I thought it might be helpful for indentifying it later. Good to know that about asteraceae. As for #1, I'm not sure of the species. It's one of those that was gone when I went back at a later time. I will be on the lookout for that one again.
Might be agrimony. http://stonethegardener.tumblr.com/post/58156319959/agrimony-still-working-on-the-specific-variety
My first thought also because of the interrupted pinnate leaves; however, they seem different from those I've seen before (more delicate). Not a big deal, I'll probably run across it again and get more details next time.
