I got up very early two Sunday mornings ago and headed down to Furnace Run Metro Park in Richfield to shoot some daffodils. The park’s website says that the land the daffodil trail is on was owned by the first metro parks director and he planted the first bulbs along the trail. There are now more than 30 thousand daffodils every April along the 0.6 mile trail. I shot this one with a very thin depth of field to showcase the great detail in the flower’s center while producing a background that looks very much like a painting.
