Gargantuan clematis vines eats tree! (8)

Down in the coulees today I ran across this vine. It was growing up the side of the tree (I included a medium shot as a WS). The flowers shown here reminded me of dandelions, but it isn't, and Janice (lovenature) has identified it as a clematis vine that has gone to seed. So that's why it looks so much like a dandelion! Thanks to Janice (lovenature) for the ID.

PP: A resize, frame, a contrast adjustment to isolate the flower better, and a slight USM.
