Thanks for sharing man, that is absolutely gorgeous stuff. Beautiful landscape too, must be a pleasure to toke up while enjoying that terrain. 
By the way, a user here has an avatar of that same exact kind of bug hanging out on a pot leaf.

I think we should make that bug the Growery sponsor, it even looks psychedelic.... Any chance you happen to know the name of the little stoner?

Graphocephala coccinea is a meadow- and woodland-dwelling species of brightly-colored leafhopper native to North America.
Common names for the speces include Candy-striped Leafhopper, Red-banded Leafhopper, Scarlet-and-green Leafhopper and Red-and-blue Leafhopper (plus numerous spelling, hypenation, capitalization and other variations thereof).

That little leaf hopper is awesome, it looks to be in the same position even!!! So what, they like to hang out one or two leaf sets down and just look at the flowers?
The last three photos are indeed ditch weed, and no, they were not harvested... although admittedly I did give that a try when I was a teenager. It didn't work out too well but nevertheless it looked really cool to have a trunk full of bud haahaa. That landscape is nice, although big sky country can feel a bit oppressive. I live to the east of that location by 150 miles where ditch weed is thankfully less common, otherwise outdoor growing would be a bit of a problem... nobody wants the ditch weed genetics making there way to cloned plants or good seed stock.
The plant that was harvested is a mango strain. I didn't even plan to grow this year however a clone was given to me around June 20th, so this thing was in the ground a relatively short time. I'm not sure what the yield is.... and hate to think about what the yield could have been with an earlier start and slightly better siting with regard to sunlight. There is always next year.... HEY!!! Maybe by then it will be legal and I can plant it next to my tomatoes and squash!!! Right? haahaa. 
I didn't take a close up on harvest day due to being embarrassed by an oversight. I traveled out of town for several days, upon return the plant was just a little overripe and not as pretty as I would have liked. I'm used to growing strains that mature much much later in the season like late October or even early November -- Halloween harvests have been a common practice in years past.
One more pic that shows total.

Maybe if you use f8 you can get some mushrooms in the shot too : )

I really should have taken more time to capture higher quality images of the ditchweed, unfortunately those fields are about 150 miles away so I probably won't be able to take more photos from that particular area. If i spot any closer to home I'll definitely get some shots.
Central to western Kansas and eastern Nebraska are the two regions in where I've seen more wild cannabis than anywhere. Around Omaha NE you see fields like that just outside the more densely populated urban areas.
Here are a few more photos from past years. These were taken with a terrible little 3MP camera.
Garden/harvest shots.
  
And ditchweed.
