Throwback Thursday View - 26 April 2018 Edition

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Today's throwback is from April 26, 2015 and was shot at the Lehigh Valley Zoo in Schnecksville Pennsylvania. Located within a game preserve the Lehigh Valley Zoo is small but well worth the visit. It's also an easy drive and not too far off of the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

Exploration Photography Daily View - June 4, 2015

Hi and welcome to the Exploration Photography Daily View.

This is the exit road at the Lehigh Valley Zoo in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania. As far as I know there is always a few inches of water to drive through. I don't know for sure because we have only been there once. At least it's paved. And we will definitely be going back!

Thanks for stopping by.

Until next time...

Welcome to May and happy Friday all! 

To wrap up the week let's hop on over to the Lehigh Valley Zoo one more time and have a look at the kangaroos (pun intended).

And that will do it folks. Gotta go for now but I will be back soon. I hope to see you here.

Until next time...

April 29, 2015 - Photo Of The Day

Well folks it's been a long day and this is going to be quick. I still have a few photos to process from our trip to the zoo on Sunday but I did get three done that I would like to share with you today. So let's get started shall we?

Is it me or does the third photo look like the one prairie dog is telling the other one a secret? Or maybe he is just telling him to keep away from his food.

In addition to these three pictures I also had the video camera out this morning at the Avian (and Squirrel) cafe. It seems that we now have three squirrels. Maybe it's the peanuts I have been putting out. And speaking of peanuts I also learned that Blackbirds love them. Anyhow please check out the link below for the video.

And while I am talking about videos I would like to share my YouTube Channel with you. There you can find many more videos that I have posted over the years. You can get there at the following link.

And that's about it for today. But before I go I would like to let you know that I am working on a couple of ideas that I will be implementing here at the blog. And I think you will like them. At least I hope so. All I can say now is that I hope to streamline the blog and bring you some more in depth posts at the same time. If everything comes together you should see it starting on Monday. So please keep watching this spot.

Thanks for stopping by.

Until next time...

April 28, 2015 - Photo Of The Day

Hi all! Today's post is for the birds. Literally. Continuing with photos from Sunday's trip to the Lehigh Valley Zoo I present to you some of it's resident birds. Any of you who have been reading my blog for any amount of time knows I love photographing birds. Whether they be wild or in a zoo setting. I have always been fascinated with them. So please have a look and enjoy.

And just to switch things up a little I am including this "non bird" photo. Actually I want to show you something I think is really cool. Yesterday I shared a panorama from the side of the road leading to the zoo. But what caught my eye almost as much as the view was this.

This bench is right at the edge of the hill. Right in the center. What an incredible place to sit and relax and just enjoy what nature has to offer. It is so serene. On my next visit I will have to make a short video.

And that is it for today folks. As always I thank you for taking a little bit of time out of your day to read my blog and check out my photos. As much as I love photography it would not be as enjoyable without you to share it with. Thank you!

Until next time...

April 27, 2015 - Photo Of The Day

I have been going over my photos from our trip this past weekend and have processed a few from the Lehigh Valley Zoo. Today I am sharing them with you. But there is a lot more and I will be showing them to you over the next few days. So please take a look and most of all enjoy.

This first shot was taken along the road that leads to the zoo. It was made from five different frames and merged in Adobe Bridge and touched up in Photoshop. What an amazing view.

And the rest of these are various residents of the zoo.

And that's all for today. Thanks for stopping by and as always I welcome you to come back soon to see what I share next.

Until next time...

Hi again! Today's post is a sampling of two parts of our weekend trip to north central Pennsylvania. As I told you yesterday we went to Knoebels Amusement Resort in Elysburg. Today I have a photo and a short video from that trip.

This is the Big Wheel which of course is their Ferris Wheel.

And here is the video. It's 45 seconds of our ride.

On our drive home today we discovered The Lehigh Valley Zoo. It's a small zoo located within a game preserve and I must say that I was very impressed. And I got lots of pictures. Today though I am sharing two. It's been a long day of driving and I just don't have time to go through all of them. But I will be sharing them over the next few days. Along with some more from Knoebels and other stuff from our trip.

This first one is one of their hawks. I kind of felt bad for him because he could see the sky and wanted to fly. Here he is trying to fly.

And here is one of my favorites. A prairie dog. There are several but this guy was cool. I shot a lot of photos of him and the other prairie dogs.

And that's it for today. Please be sure to come back because there is a lot more where these came from.

Until next time...
