Tuesday View - 10 July 2018 Edition

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

When I upgraded my camera a little over a year ago I also purchased a small compact camera, a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS50 that I figured I'd keep with me just in case I needed to grab a quick shot and didn't have my big camera handy. But as it turns out in our move last year I lost the charging cord and haven't been able to use it. I think it maybe has 50 or so shots on the clock. But last week I bought a charger on Amazon and am able to use it once again. So this past weekend I took it with me when we drove to our camper at the shore. I didn't shoot a lot but I did take it for a spin. And my results are mixed. I am not used to it so I am still learning some of the settings, which are a lot different and a lot more limited than my Canon DSLR. But that is to be expected at about 1/10 of the cost. For today's view I am sharing a photo of our campfire on Friday night.

Not as clear as I would like but I'm sure it is more me than the camera.

Here is The EXIF data.


And that is going to do it for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - December 14, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

I was going through some of the weeks photos and I came across another shot from Penn's Landing on Saturday that I would like to share. This is the Battleship New Jersey docked on the Camden Waterfront.


I shot this with my Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS50.

Exploration Photography Daily View - December 10, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

What a cold and winter-like day we had today! Temperatures didn't raise above 40° F (About 4.5° C). But that didn't stop us from heading to the city to visit Penn's Landing Playhouse located at the Independence Seaport Museum to watch a live performance of "Little Shop of Horrors". Kim and I enjoy live theater and today's show did not disappoint. And after the show we took a quick walk around Penn's Landing to look at the scenery. I didn't have my DSLR with me because I wanted to travel light. Instead I broke in my new Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS50. The Lumix is unique in today's world of compact Point and Shoots whereas it has a viewfinder (not just a rear screen) and it will save images in RAW format. Two things that are an absolute must for me. Especially the viewfinder. Just try using the rear screen on a bright beach and you will know why. But enough of that. Here is my offering for today.


This is the Ben Franklin Bridge and part of the Camden Waterfront in New Jersey as viewed from Philadelphia. While the Lumix does offer a Panoramic Mode I opted to shoot three frames and merge them in Photoshop. This may not be DSLR quality but overall I think it came out pretty good. Feel free to let me know your thoughts in the comment section.
