Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
Well I'm still a little under the weather today so another mobile update it is. That's okay though because I have a lot on my phone to share with you. The other day I posted a peacock sitting on a fence. Today I present his friend who decided to aim a little higher.
That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

It seems that wherever I go squirrels seem to find me. Or maybe I find them? Either way that is what happened during yesterday's rainy day visit to the zoo. This guy was pretty friendly and was happy to take a couple acorns we found nearby.
That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
So what do you do on a rainy day at the shore? Go to the zoo! The Cape May County Zoo is just minutes away from our campsite so we figured what the heck? It's free to visit and probably won't be busy. And we were right. We also knew from prior experience that the animals would be more active than on a dry hot day. Naturally I made lots of snapshots and for today's photo I am sharing this peacock with you.
That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

For today's weekend mobile Update I am sharing another shot I made while we were out and about driving. We see a lot of geese around here especially in front of the Cape May County Zoo on route 9. This group (or flock I suppose) had at least a couple dozen members.
That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to The Exploration Photography Daily View
Well Kim and I are back from yet another rainy weekend at the shore. But at least it didn't rain the whole time. We were able to get some outdoor activities in and we were even able to have a nice campfire last night. This morning the rain held off long enough for us to run a few errands. And I was able to do a little bit of shooting.
Many dozens of times as we have traveled up and down RT 9 in Cape May Courthouse I have noticed a really nice little lake at the entrance of the Cape May County Zoo and Park. So today I finally decided to stop by and shoot some photos. Being a dreary and did I mention very windy day there was no one else there but me. Even Kim waited in my truck. But I wasn't all alone. I had the company of a few flocks of geese. There was several adults and a lot of young ones. And for today's photo I would like to share some of them with you.
Just a family out for a swim.
Here is the EXIF data.

Today I am sharing an informative link for something I want to try. It's a tour that I have not yet been on but would like to go. So I thought I'd share it with you. And of course when I do I'll be sure to share my experience here at the blog. Click Here to check it out.
And that will do it for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
Today's Friday view is one more shot from last weekend's visit to the Cape May County Zoo. As I worked with the original RAW image I just couldn't get it right. Then I converted it to the black and white image you see here and knew that is what it needed. What do you think?
Here is the EXIF data.

Even at the zoo, any zoo, I seem to find a squirrel or two to photograph. Or maybe they find me? Either way that is the theme of today's view. Enjoy.
This was shot just outside of the aviary at the Cape May County Zoo.

Today We continue our journey through the Cape May County Zoo and get up close and personal with one of the larger birds on exhibit. Check out this flamingo.
He/She let me get up close but wouldn't stand still for long.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
Today's view is one of the many shots I made at The cape May County Zoo yesterday. I had a good camera day and have lots to share but to start I would like to show you this shy bird that was hiding deep in the branches of a bush in the aviary. I was lucky to grab it before he flew off.
This is one of the few pics that I present as a portrait. I did it this way because I am going to frame a copy for our house.

Today's view is a snapshot from one of our many stops today at the Jersey Shore. We spent most of the day setting up camp in Cape May Courthouse New Jersey where we will be spending a lot of time this Summer. And that means lots of photo ops! But we did take a little time out to visit the Cape May County Zoo. It was a beautiful day to stroll the grounds and shoot a pic or two and shoot a bunch of snapshots like this one.

Welcome To The Friday View

- Sigma DC 18-250mm Lens at 37mm
- Aperture Priority
- Aperture F8
- Shutter Speed 1/50 Second
- ISO (Film Speed) 200

Welcome To The Wednesday View
It's halfway through the work week and I am way more than halfway tired. I had a lot of yard work to do when I got home today. I don't mind though. I always feel like I've accomplished something when I am done.

Welcome To The Tuesday View
From our trip to the Cape May County Zoo on Saturday I would like to share this with you. There is usually a deer or two in this area but I didn't see them that day. I don't know where they were but wherever it was I hope they were getting some food because this bowl is emptying fast.
Go figure. I am at a zoo and I still shoot photos of squirrels.

- Sigma DC 18-250mm Lens at 250mm

Welcome To The Saturday View
Today I am sharing a snapshot from our visit today to one of my favorite places. The Cape May County Zoo in Cape May Courthouse New Jersey. I have written about it in previous posts and I just cannot say enough good about the place. First of all it offers free admission, though they do appreciate donations. And we always throw some money in the bucket. And second it's a really nice zoo. It's big and offers a wide variety of exhibits. And there always seems to be improvements being made.
While walking through the zoo today we saw this.
He was noisy and he certainly was not shy. And he seems to be molting too.
This is a quick one but I must go for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
Today I would like to share a photo that I have been wanting to show you for quite a while now. A little over a month actually. Who goes to the zoo and shoots flowers? Me of course!
One of my favorite flowers at one of my favorite places. A Daisy at the Cape May County Zoo.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
Going through a bunch of photos this afternoon I was trying to decide what to share with you today. It dawned on me that I haven't posted a squirrel lately. So here's one from the Cape May County Zoo.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
Well folks, I don't know about you but we had some really bad rain and wind this evening. More than I have seen in quite a while. In fact we lost power for almost two hours. That is something else that hasn't happened for a while. And as it happens I was shooting what turned out to be a very short video when it happened. I'll share it below but first I would like to show you yet another photo from the Cape May County Zoo.
This is one of the few zoos I have visited that truly has a great space for giraffes. There is plenty of room for them to run free. Have I mentioned that I love this place? We go there at least once a year and it never gets old.
Okay here is the storm video I promised. Let me say first though that it does not even begin to show just how bad it was. And the last crack of lightening at the end is when everything shut down for a couple of hours.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
I was going over several days worth of RAW images today trying to decide what I would like to share with you and came across a lot from the Cape May County Zoo from our July 4th visit. I really did shoot a lot that day. So after a bit of back and forth I chose this.
That is one sleepy owl!
Over the next week I'll probably have more from the zoo but I hope to have some new stuff too. And I am still working on that project I recently mentioned. Stay tuned!

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
Where does a 150 lb mouse sit? Wherever he wants of course! But though today's photo subject is a rodent it certainly is no mouse.
This is of course a capybara. The worlds largest rodent. Shot at the Cape May County Zoo this is the most active I have ever seem one of these guys. Especially on a rather hot and humid day.
