  A 
                    Special Place for Photography Sunny 
                    Fields is available for some very special photography. If 
                    you have an interest in taking pictures of unique flowers, 
                    unusual settings or just plain taking pictures, Sunny Fields 
                    may be the most rewarding place to visit.
 Bill 
                    Horman has volumes of photographs taken at all times of the 
                    day and evening and in all seasons. If you would like to try 
                    your hand at some photography, please call for an appointment. 
                    He suggests early morning and would make the park available 
                    as well in early evening for some spectacular pictures. Wildlife 
                    is abundant at the park, and you might just get the picture 
                    you've been seeking for your collection. Give 
                    Bill Horman a call at 810-387-2765 to set up an appointment 
                    and share the beauty of Sunny Fields with others. Tours 
                     You 
                    can tour Sunny Fields at your leisure by setting up an appointment 
                    (810-387-2765) almost any day of the week. Tours are typically 
                    set up for 10 AM and 2 PM; however, flexible scheduling for 
                    special times such as early morning or near dusk is offered. 
                    If you have difficulty walking the trails, a golf cart is 
                    often available and will hold up to four people. When you 
                    call, simply let Bill know you may need this assistance, and 
                    he will be happy to provide help. Benches are also available 
                    on which to take a break, and a port-a-john is available on 
                    the premises for your comfort. The park is open through October 
                    so the beautiful fall colors can be observed amidst the serenity 
                    of Sunny Fields.
