The plant in the foreground is Oenothera lindheimeri (Clockweed). The background one is Epilobium hirtigerum. Which one do you prefer for the ID, Ryu?

I was thinking the foreground one but I could submit this image again if you can ID the backgroud one too

If you can submit the photo again, I will leave this one as it is and ID the new one as Clockweed. It is useful to have photos with withered flowers so people can learn from them.
