Daffodils and Oaks at Morton Arboretum

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

Photographer baldwinm16 tells us about this April 19, 2009 photo: That was taken at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL. The Daffodil Glade is a very popular spot there in the spring, with thousands of daffodils blooming beneath giant oak trees. On this particular day, it had been raining for most of the morning, but then it let up for a couple hours; just enough time to get a few images with the colors saturated by the moisture.

Here is another photo taken at the same time.

Looks like spring is actually arriving in Chicago, though the trees don’t quite know it yet. Here’s the larger size of the posted photo.

Photographer CS_McMahon tells us about this April 19, 2009 photo: It was taken at the Chicago Botanical Gardens, this past Saturday. I have no idea which variety they are… I just thought they were gorgeous.

The Garden has a lot of beautiful daffodils. The American Daffodil Society National Show will be at the Garden this weekend.
