NEcology #61 - The Search for a Secluded Solidago

My sincere thanks to people who watch these videos. During the filming of this video, and the handful filmed prior I was going through a rough patch and I feel as though the quality of the videos suffered as a result.
Solidago leiocarpa is one of many fascinating plants endemic, nearly endemic or disjunct on the highest peaks of the northeast. However, that was not what brought me up to Mt Washington to film this video! I was actually looking for 3 other rare plants, but had to be satisfied with one after dealing with ID issues, camera issues, and a minor injury! Undeterred, I still have a few neat things to show you!
Plants of interest:
Solidago macrophylla - "Big Leaved Goldenrod"
Symphyotrichum novae-belgii - "New York Aster"
Oclemena acuminata - "Whorled Wood Aster"
Veratrum viride - "Green False Hellebore"
Geum Peckii - "White Mountain Avens"
Nabalus trifoliolatus - "Three-leaved Rattlesnake Root"
Solidago leiocarpa - "Cutter's Goldenrod"
Empetrum nigrum - "Black Crowberry"

Excellent trekking and botany.
Good camera resolution and color balance, but could you improve the focus changes?

I appreciate the feedback. Yes, I'm rather new to DSLR photography and many of the shots I got are quite sloppy. I'm hoping to add a proper lens (105mm) and be more disciplined about using my tripod this year as some of my captures from last year weren't even usable.
