Acer japonicum by the stream - a photo on Flickriver

Another Acer species found by the same stream.

The shrub in the left is Hauchiwa-kaede (Japanese maple, Acer japonicum). Hauchiwa (羽団扇) is a fan made of feather, with which the Tengu spectre is believed to cause the wind to attack his enemies. The maple species is so named as its leaves look similar to Tengu's feather fan. It is native to Japan and southern Korea.
Kohauchiwa-kaede (Acer sieboldianum) is so named as its leaves are similar-shaped but small (Ko-) compared with those of Hauchiwa-kaede or Japanese maple.
Both species are popular gardening plants with many cultivars.

A photo of a Tengu with a Hauchiwa is here (flic.kr/p/2mPPmmK).

The foliage in the right is Yachidamo (Manchurian ash, Fraxinus mandshurica) native to Northeast Asia and Russian Far East. It is a deciduous tree often grows on wet soil by the stream.
It is one of the "relative in America" type of plants like many of alpine/subalpine relic species. It is closely related to Fraxinus nigra (black ash) from eastern North America.
