To Blur or Not To Blur? Newport Mansions upstaged by Millions of Daffodils



Newport, Rhode Island's Cliff Walk popped with color last weekend as the millions (or trillions) of daffodilians burst into bloom. The brilliant yellow blossoms look like carpets running along the pathways and into the woods. After such a long, dreary winter, the flowers were a very welcome sight.


I just wanted to focus on the flowers....Everything else was a blur.


The Mansions look dreamier when they are just a smudge in the background
Actually, the mansions look awfully nice when they are in focus, too


Flowers front and center; Mansion a gray blob.
This mansion is Ochre Court of Salve Regina University
