Today I am sharing one more picture from our walk in the Norristown Farm Park. This is a black and white view of the barn and silos. I shot it on the way back to our car just before sunset. And the park closes at sunset so we were in a bit of a hurry.

Kim and I were out and about again today this time at the Norristown Farm Park just up the road. We took a nice long walk and I shot a lot of photos along the way. Including a few shots of the evening sky as the sun settled down over the horizon. And for today's view I would like to share it with you.

Today for the first time Kim and I visited the Ridley Creek State Park just about a half hour away. I mean what better to do when it's 31 degrees out? But really it was nice to get out and take a walk. Especially when it is someplace new to us. So anyway I obviously took a bunch of pictures. And for today's view I am sharing a few with you. These were shot near the mansion which is one of the main attractions of the park. I don't know a lot about it yet but if you would like to check it out just Click Here to visit the park website.

I'm digging back into the archives again today due to the fact that I don't have anything new to share. But that's okay because I think you will like today's view. This is one of those Valley Forge scenes that I have shot over and over because I like it so much. And I like to see if I can get it better each time too. As you can see it's in black and white. I just think it needs to be. So have a look and let me know what you think, if you like.

On the way home from work today I decided to stop by our local park and grab a few pictures before all of the snow melts. A lot of it has already but I think there is just the right amount. And for today's view I would like to share a couple with you.

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Last week when I shared a sunrise photo I couldn't quite get the colors the way I wanted. They weren't quite as accurate as they should have been. So I have been doing some reading and practicing in Photoshop and think I've solved the problem. Like most things it was pretty simple. I just had to find the setting. So for today's view I would like to share a wider and hopefully more accurate view of the sun a few minutes after it rose over the horizon.

I'm not sure what was going on yesterday with my Blogger account but for some reason I was unable to make my daily post. So here I am on Sunday morning giving it another try. Some of you have already seen these pictures but for those of you that are not Facebook friends I would like to share them here. I shot these through both our back door and storm door. Not bad huh? Especially for a cell phone camera.

Well my computer has finished it's updates. Over three hours of updates. And I really don't see a difference. But I'm sure it's there somewhere. Anyway I would like to share today what I couldn't yesterday. This is a flock of geese I saw after shooting the sunrise this past weekend. I was on the way back to the car and was able to grab a few shots before heading for home.

Anyone else have an extra long Windows Update recently? Well my laptop has been unusable for over two hours so far due to this update. That being said I am not able to post the picture I had planned to. But luckily I have a backup. And that backup is this Smidge picture I shot earlier today. As you can see she is doing one of the things cats do very well. Sleeping. Hopefully I'll have use of my computer tomorrow.

It's been a while my friends but for today's view I am sharing today's sunrise. I was up nice and early and it was unseasonably warm so I grabbed my camera and tripod and headed for the park up the street. And I couldn't have picked a nicer morning. There was just the right amount of cloud and the Sun formed a beautiful orange ball as it rose above the horizon. I hope you enjoy the photo as much as I enjoyed bringing it to you. And stay tuned because I shot a lot and have some more nice images for future posts.

It's tough to photograph this time of year. At least during the work week. The days are short and there's just not enough sunlight. So seeing as I like to shoot landscapes and nature I rely on weekends to shoot. But luckily I have quite a bit stockpiled to fall back on and share for my daily view. And today I am sharing a photo from 2018 that I shot at the Cafe. I had to shoot a lot of frames before these birds were all facing at least sort of the same direction.
