WHITETOP! . . . The charming creamy-white sprays of texture seen here on both sides
of the river are composed of one of the more notorious weeds of the Northwest,
Whitetop (Cardaria draba). Weeds are a central theme of PhotoWeek. I like
to think of them in a general way: "A weed is a species of movement which
feeds on chaos and roots in imbalance."
On the road in the American Northwest.
