Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
I guess there is not much more to say about Sunday at Valley Forge except that it really was an exceptional outing. The Sun and fog blended perfectly with the surroundings and I was able to produce many really nice shots including today's.
Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
For the last couple days I have shared Sunday's incredible morning Sun over Valley Forge. But the Sun wasn't the only star (no pun intended) of the day. Check out the cool low lying fog around my "favorite" tree.
A nice bit of eeriness for the upcoming Halloween season.
Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
Yesterday I shared the morning Sun at Valley Forge and today I would like to show you another view.
That big yellow light in the sky was friendly to me yesterday and I am glad to be able to share a little bit of it with you.
Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
Hi and welcome to an early edition of the Daily View!
Yep I am getting this out to you early and that is because I was up early chasing the Sun at Valley Forge this morning. And it was a great morning to shoot the Sun. Nice crisp and cool air and a touch of fog. I snapped over 400 frames and have three to share with you today. One photo comprised of three. Check it out.

My goal was to capture the rays and not blow out the image with too much bright light and was able to do so by shooting three frames at different exposure values; HDR. HDR or High Dynamic Range photography tends to get a bad rap from "professional " photographers but I find it very useful at times. And besides, I believe that there is no one right way to present a photo. Sure there are basic rules but I see them more as a guidelines. How boring would it be if every photo was the same?
But enough of that. Just enjoy the moment I was lucky enough to capture and share with you. I hope you like it :)
Thanks for stopping by my friends!
Until next time...
Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
It's been a busy day around here folks and that means this is going to be a quick one. So let's get right to it shall we?
This is from a few days ago at the Cafe.
One of the many peanuts he enjoyed that morning.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi and welcome to the Friday edition of the Exploration Photography Daily View!
Yeah it's pretty much like the other days but I really like Fridays. And today's post is a lot like yesterday's except it's a little different. Yep, the same but different! Check out my view of the morning sky once again viewed from our back deck.

Like yesterday we can see the Moon and Venus but there is also what I believe to be Mars and of you look real hard you can see a couple of stars too. The funny thing is that I didn't even see those stars when I shot this. I discovered them later during post processing. Sort of an added bonus.
And now I must go but I'll be back real soon. I hope to see you here again at the blog.
Until next time...
Hi and welcome to the Daily View!
As we head straight on into Autumn we are being blessed with some really nice weather. Last week was so wet and rainy and cold but is seems that warm air and sunshine are not quite ready to hibernate. It's a bit cloudy right now but this morning the skies were clear and as I stepped out onto our rear deck I was greeted by this.
The Moon of course and what I believe to be Venus. You are welcome to correct me though if I am incorrect.
Looking at this photo I see it as a true lesson in perspective and relativity. The Moon looks so much bigger than Venus. That is of course because the Moon is only 238,900 Miles (384472.282 Kilometers) from Earth and Venus is about 26 Million Miles (42 Million Kilometers) away.
Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
