Welcome To The Wednesday View

It's Wednesday my friends and that means it's snapshot day. Well not really. Wednesday isn't really snapshot day but I am sharing a snapshot on this particular Wednesday. And today's snapshot falls under the don't try this at home category. Actually it's more like don't try this on the road. But rest assured that I was not near any other vehicles and I was traveling at a safe speed. And I also just couldn't resist the view.

This was on our way home on Monday afternoon from our Pocono camping trip. And yes I was pulling the camper when I shot it. But to share a secret the camera (phone) was mounted so I wasn't holding it.

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

Welcome To The Daily View

When I headed out to work this morning it must have been near 60° F (around 15° C). And we reached a high somewhere around 70° F (21° C). There was a bit of fog too. Tomorrow though is supposed to be the complete opposite. It's going to be much colder and on top of that we are looking at a possible 8 or more inches of snow. Welcome to Winter in Pennsylvania! But getting back to my drive in today, I shot this picture of one if the buildings at the Norristown State Hospital while sitting in traffic.

I shot this with my camera phone. The excellent Samsung Galaxy S6. Being shot in Full Auto I am not sharing any technical info. I did crop it and converted it from color into black and white in Photoshop.

Here is the "Before" image.

Welcome To The Daily View

Today I would like to share a snapshot I made while driving home from work. I have a longer commute now and at least some of it is scenic.

There's not a lot of technical info since I shot this in auto with my phone's camera. I also did no adjustments so this is the "Before" and "After" photo.

Welcome To The Daily View

Today like most days lately was a busy one. But we did take time out to drive to Lancaster County with my Sister Kathy and Brother in law Joe for dinner. We have been doing this each January for the past few years to celebrate Kathy's and my birthday. On our drive out there today we hit some foggy weather and I thought what the heck? I'll shoot a picture or two. And of course I had to share one with you.


Remember, don't try this at home. I will say though that there was not much traffic. But still, don't try this at home.

Exploration Photography Daily View - September 21, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

It is often said that getting there is half the fun. And I believe this to be true. That is why Kim and I drove to Florida earlier this month instead of flying. And though it was a long drive I am really glad we did it. But there was one small monkey wrench tossed into the works.

The day we set out on the road happened to be the same day a hurricane decided to travel straight up the I-95 corridor. The route we were supposed to travel. But luckily we had a second option that would only add an hour or so to the trip. So instead of 14 - 15 hours of windshield time we had closer to 16 hours. Not too bad. And doing this we did not see one drop of rain or any wind from the hurricane. Oh we did see rain after entering Florida but it was unrelated. It was however bad rain. Very, very bad rain. But we made it.

For today's photo(s) I am continuing with my snapshots. And the subject is our journey south. These were all taken as we traveled along I-81 and I-77.








Truthfully except for the one with the Welcome to Florida sign I am not sure what state they represent. I mean highway is highway pretty much. But like I said, at least it was a pleasant drive.

January 18, 2015 - Photo Of The Day

Well another weekend is winding down and it's back to work tomorrow. That's okay though. At least I have a job to go to. I know that there a lot of people out there that are less fortunate than me. Anyway, I had some plans to go out today and shoot but mother nature had different ideas. Namely rain. A lot of rain. So I didn't go out like I wanted to and as a result I will be sharing one more photo from yesterday's trip to Lancaster. So here you go. This was shot with my camera phone on our way to Kitchen Kettle Village on one of the back roads.


I am also going to show you a one minute video I shot on our way home. It's nothing special really. I was just testing some settings on my phone. But here you go anyway.


So that's my rainy day post. Not what I wanted to share but not that bad I guess. Thanks so much for stopping by and please be sure to come back soon. 

Until next time...
