Daffodils and Sunsets

These images were taken last month at the daffodil farms in Skagit Valley. As it approached sunset, the light just kept getting better and better…















And here’s a video of the trip, complete with Wild Alpaca Chase:

Wonderful shots and I love the way you talk to us in the video. You're thinking out loud and I appreciate that.

Of the stills, the next to the last one is my faraway favorite. It really speaks to me.

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils...

- William Wordsworth

These beautiful, beautiful photos brought to mind this poem, which I remember copying off the blackboard and memorizing in the 6th grade.
