Monday View - 6 August 2018 Edition

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Today I am staying with the bug/insect theme except this time we take another look at the Lizard Tail Swamp Preserve. Like I said before we really didn't stay too long because we didn't have bug repellent, but I did make the best of the time we were there. When I was shooting what would become today's photo I was only trying to capture the flower. Then this guy decided to stop by. I'm glad I wasn't too close because he doesn't look like he's too fond of human interaction.

And I have one more thing to share with you today.

When leaving for work this morning I saw something weird going on. I took a closer look and saw this. It seems that a slug is giving birth to another slug. The video I am sharing stops before the event was over but you will certainly get the idea.


And that will do it for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Welcome To The Wednesday View

While shooting flowers and butterflies the other day I also got the chance to photograph nature on a bit smaller level. Sharing yet another pic from Gardener's Basin in Atlantic City here is what I believe to be some kind of Box Elder Bug. Up close and personal.

Welcome To The Thursday View

Despite some light rain today I managed to make it out for a bit and do a little more shooting. I figured I'd better take advantage of some free time that I have. I once again visited Valley Forge National Park but this time I drove to the other side of the Schuylkill River to the Pawlings Farm Trail section. Home of the "Witness Tree". And though I did get a good number of photos of the tree I also played around a bit doing some macro shots. So for today's photo I would like to share one with you. This one in fact.

There was a light breeze to go along with the light rain and it sure did not make this shot easy.
