The park is called Nike Park because this site used to house Nike missiles during the cold war. You can figure out where one of the silos was located because there's a very large, level, circular area on the grounds and it stands out.
Here's a pdf of an article about the missile site from 1955.

Beautiful and lovely shot!Simply fantastic !!
Lovely daisy and peaceful bokeh (that one grass disturbs me a bit but who cares)!
So simple, so small and yet so pretty.
Great shot Wayne!
Thanks for the link too!
Nice! The flower really pops out from the background.
The photo is great, even the petals are perfect. I have tried photographing daisies, and seldom find a perfect one. The bokeh makes the flower stand out,
hai rappresentato la perfezione! bellissima.
