Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - February 7, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and Weekly Roundup!

 Wow what a quick weekend this was! We got a lot accomplished but now I feel like I need a couple days to rest up.

 Today is Kim's and my anniversary. We have been married for 12 wonderful years. Most of the day was spent in home improvement centers buying this and ordering that for an ongoing kitchen project that is finally getting somewhere. In our journeys we came across a great clearance sale on outdoor equipment and bought ourselves a propane fire pit. Of course I had to try it out so as soon as it got dark we went out a spent a little time playing around with it. And naturally I had to shoot some photos. Here's one of them.


Very serene but still a bit chilly out there. 

 And now for the Weekly Roundup... Finally...

 Click on any of the links below to have a second look at the past weeks posts. Or perhaps a first look if you missed a day.










And that wraps up another week my friends. Thanks for stopping by and please come back real soon!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - January 15, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and Weekly Roundup!

 For the past couple of days I have been going over photos I have shot recently and for some reason the candles from New Years Eve stuck out to me. And it just so happened that while I was doing this we had a jar candle burning so I thought I would set the camera up on the tripod and shoot some new frames and see what I came up with. Naturally that is the subject of today's photo.


And now we come to the Weekly Roundup. Click any of the links below to take a second look (or first look) at the past week's posts.







 
And that wraps up another week my friends. Thanks as always for stopping by and I hope you come back real soon!

Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - January 8, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and Weekly Roundup!

 To wrap up the week I thought I'd show you a photo I shot while wrapping up 2015 and thus beginning 2016. This is one of our bayberry candles on New Years Eve.


Every year of my life we have burned bayberry candles on Christmas Eve. It started of course with my parents and now I continue that tradition in my home with my own family. We also burn them on New Years Eve. It is believed by some that burning bayberry candles on Christmas and New Years Eve brings good luck and prosperity. I don't know about that but it is a family tradition and that's what matters the most to me.

And now for the Weekly Roundup. Click any of the links below for a second look at the past week or perhaps a first look if you missed a day.








And that's another week in the books my friends. I thank you for stopping by and invite you to come back often!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - January 1, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and Weekly Roundup!

 Well here we are at the start of a new year and Kim and I have continued our tradition of visiting Longwood Gardens on the first. Oh sure we do go there a lot during the rest of the year but on New Year day it is so much less crowded and just an overall great time. Especially with the warmer weather we have been having.

 For today's photo I would like to share the Pierce DuPont House with you.


Built in 1730 the Pierce DuPont House is a must see when visiting Longwood. But in this photo it's not what you see that is amazing. It's what you don't see. People. This is the first time I have ever been able to get this shot without people in the frame. And it's not just the house. There are many other shots that I was able to grab without dodging other visitors. But that is for another day. Right now we move on to the Weekly Roundup. As usual you can just click on any of the links below to take a second look or perhaps a first look if you happened to miss a day.




 
And that wraps up another week my friends. But I'll be back real soon and I hope you will be too! There's some changes and additions coming and maybe even a slightly different look. Nothing drastic just some tweaks I have been thinking about. Gotta keep things fresh!
 
Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - December 27, 2015

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and a slightly late Weekly Roundup!

 Last Thanksgiving (2014) my Sister Elaine gave us an orchid that bloomed for several months. Then finally it lost it's flowers and for another several months all we had was leaves. But they were healthy so I was hopeful that one day it would bloom again. And then about two weeks ago it happened. The very beginnings of new flowers. And today they are really getting big. They're not open yet but they will be. So today I would like to share one of the buds with you.


And now for the late but better than not at all Weekly Roundup. As usual you can click on any of the links below to take a second look at the last week's posts.









And there you have it folks. Thanks as always for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View And Weekly Roundup - December 12, 2015

Hi and welcome to the Daily View and Weekly Roundup!

 Yesterday's post was kind of rushed and I also did not get the Weekly Roundup out due to time constraints. After I got home from work I had to rush and get changed to drive into the city for dinner and a show that Kim booked for the two of us. We saw a live stage production called "Baskerville" at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre on South Broad Street in the Philadelphia theater district. It is comedic take of Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes mystery "The Hound of the Baskervilles". While I cannot go into any depth of the show in this post I will say that it was very well done and the comedy side is not over the top and well executed. I can recommend this show to Sherlock Holmes fans of any age.

 So while in the city we experienced one of the unfortunate side effects of driving in Philadelphia. Traffic! But I tried to make the best of it and shot a photo or two including the one I am sharing with you today. This is City Hall while driving North on Broad Street.


This was shot with my phone so it's not the highest of quality but I like how it came out.

 And now for the Weekly Roundup (a day late). Click on the links below in case you missed a day or just want an easy way to take a second look or perhaps share with someone who may be interested.
