Exploration Photography Daily View - May 30, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

Well my friends, what was supposed to be a very rainy Memorial Day holiday turned out to be pretty nice. The only clouds in the sky were nice and fluffy and the temps were tolerable. Kim and I took a drive over to Valley Forge to take in some scenery and for me to snap off a few shots. While there I thought about how Valley Forge is very symbolic of what Memorial Day is all about. Not only did many soldiers lose there lives but they did so during and for the very birth of our nation. It is a truly special place.

For today's photo I would like to share with you yet another shot of my favorite tree in one of my favorite places.


And now...

Yesterday's View...



Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - May 25, 2015

Today in observance of Memorial Day I would like to share a photo that is very special to me.


I obviously did not shoot this since it was about 26 years before I was born. This is my Dad Edward Miller in 1944 just before heading off to the Philippines during the Second World War. Some of you may have already seen it in my Facebook post earlier today. As I said in that post Dad was lucky enough to make it home but as an unfortunate fact of war many men and women serving this great nation did not. And today on Memorial Day we honor them.

Thanks for visiting.

Until next time...
