I recently spent an afternoon photographing spring wildflowers along the C&O Canal in Montgomery County Maryland. The area I was photographing in is part of the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park. It was one of those days where everywhere I looked, I saw more wonderful wildflowers to photograph. I thought I’d share some of my photos from the day with you today.
