Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

A few months back around the middle of Winter I picked up a Sony digital camera at a thrift store for a really good price. It is used for sure but in overall excellent condition. And everything is there, even the box and instructions. I haven't used it much yet but I am starting to take it along with me when we go out. I had it with me at the camper last weekend and on Saturday night I shot a few pictures of the flame atop one of our torches. So for today's view I am sharing this simple flame.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

I finally got to do a little shooting with my DSLR this weekend. Not a lot but a little is better than nothing. And a lot of it is just some simple shots from around our campsite. As we all know Fall is here and so is all of the things that come with it. Some good and some a little more eh. You know, things like cold weather and short days. And the chance of snow. That I could definitely do without. But on the good side there is always the Fall colors. The changing of the leaves and such. But enough of that for now. Here is today's photo. Not a leaf but a tree instead. A tree that will withstand Winter weather.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Today I am continuing to clear out the photos on my phone with another snapshot+. Basically a snapshot that has been lightly processed before posting. Like yesterday's photo I shot this on Sunday morning right before we left for home. This mushroom was (and still is) growing inside of our screen house. I hope it's still there this weekend because I would like to get shots of it with my DSLR. For now though I think this came out pretty good.

Today I am sharing another snapshot+ from our weekend at the campground at the shore. Actually I shot this as we were leaving for home on Sunday afternoon. I guess if nothing else the rain we had made for a good photo.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

We have gotten a lot of rain lately. Both here at home and at the shore. But there have been some moments in-between that have been at least a little dry and Saturday was one of them. We were able to enjoy the beach and were even able to relax by a campfire in the evening. And with the weather growing colder that is a good thing. Today's view is one of the many shots I made of Saturday's campfire. I love shooting them because no two will ever be the same. It is complete randomness. Enjoy.

I shot this with my Samsung Galaxy S9+ and did some minor touch ups in Photoshop. I guess it's a snapshot+.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Hi friends. In place of my usual throwback photo this week I am sharing a mobile update from our campsite. Kim and I took Friday off to enjoy a long weekend at the shore. We figured most of the holiday weekend traffic would take place on Friday and Monday so we are traveling on Thursday and Sunday. We'll see how that works out I guess. So for today's view I am sharing another shot of Schnitzel. 

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Yesterday I finally got a chance to get out and shoot for a bit. As I mentioned in yesterday's post Kim and I stopped by The Lizard Tail Swamp Preserve (I mistakenly called it the Lizard Tail Nature Preserve) to see what it had to offer. And we pretty much found trails. And those trails certainly were not short of opportunity for me to photograph. But it was a little rainy and we were without bug repellent so we did not spend a lot of time. I did make the most of our time spent there though. And I was all ready to share some with you today. Then something else came along. This morning as I was cleaning up our campsite and getting ready to head home I saw a dragonfly perching itself on my truck's antenna. So I went inside our camper to grab my camera all the while telling myself the dragonfly would be gone when I went back out. But it wasn't. In fact I was able to get pretty close. I probably shot a hundred of so frames too. So for today's view here is my would be stowaway.

Many people are afraid of dragonflies but I like them. And they look really cool close up.

Today's mobile Update is being posted from our camper at the shore and was made during a rest stop on our way down this evening after work. This is Schnitzel getting some fresh air and was shot in my trucks side view mirror.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Kim and I are at our camper after a long drive so once again I am posting a weekend mobile Update.

As soon as we got here I started a fire and we are sitting enjoying it on this rather cool evening.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!

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.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

For today's Summertime Weekend Edition I am sharing tonight's campfire. We were debating on whether or not to have one due to the heat and high humidity but went ahead anyway. I guess it just wouldn't be the same without one.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!
