Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Good day my friends. For today's view I would like to try another "update as I go" post. Meaning of course I am going to write part of the post now and update it throughout the day. I am still thinking about doing several small updates one day but not quite yet. I still need to think about how I would like to do that. So for now I would like to start the day with these shots I made in the back back section of the Cafe after work yesterday. As you will see I got down and up close and personal to bring you these dandelions and seeds. It was easy getting down but getting up is another story. The lengths I go to get the shot. It's now around 9:30am as I share these first photos.

Hey, I'm back. Okay I know you can't tell I was away from the computer for hours but I assure you I was. It is now 3:08 PM and I have a few shots from one of the Cafe feeders to show you. It was very busy and I saw a lot of cool birds including some bluejays and male cardinals.

It is now 4:36 PM and I am going to finish today's post with some shots from the front of the Cafe at the suet feeder. Suet is a favorite of our woodpeckers but as you can see the blackbirds will eat there too. Specifically this female red winged blackbird.

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

Until next time...

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

On this on and off rainy day filled with overcast and clouds I managed to find some time to do some shooting at the Cafe. And really it was quite unplanned. I had simply gone out to toss some peanuts around for the squirrels and bluejays and before I knew it the place was packed. So me being me I grabbed my camera and almost three hundred frames later here is today's photo.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

Today I would like to share one more shot from Valley Forge. And I would Like to place it in the "Don't try this at home" category.

I cannot condone shooting a photo while driving but I did make this at a low speed and there were no others cars present. This is a snapshot straight out of camera (SOOC) too.

And now...

Hi and welcome to today's Daily View!

Most people don't like dandelions but I kind of like them. And we sure do have a lot of them this year. I figured I'd shoot a few before I mow the lawn and they go away.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

April 22, 2015 - Photo Of The Day

Today I would like to wrap up our trip to Longwood Gardens on Saturday. Though I may share a few more after today. You never know. I usually concentrate on flowers when at Longwood. I mean it is what they are famous for. But their grounds are just as beautiful. It is so peaceful and I could walk there every day. Even when there are crowds there always seems to be a quiet spot. Anyhow I have three photos to share with you today. Please have a look and enjoy.

This first shot is the lake at the beginning of the Meadow Garden. A few days ago I showed you the other side.

Here we have a closer look at the lake. I guess it is actually a look into the lake. Check out the fish.

And this last photo shows the trail leading into the Meadow Garden.

Thanks for stopping by. I am so glad that you did. I hope you enjoyed your stay and come back again real soon. There is a lot I would like to share with you.

Until next time...

September 22, 2014 - Photo of The Day

When I go out on a photo shoot I usually have a specific subject in mind. In fact just a few weeks ago I went to Valley Forge and spent an hour or more photographing one tree. But that doesn't mean I stay completely on topic. How boring would that be? Sometimes the trip is just as scenic as the main subject.

Yesterday as many of you know I went to Pawling's Farm in Valley Forge Park to get some shots of "The Witness Tree". On my walk along the trail to get to it I shot this.

So quiet. So peaceful. So serene. And that about sums it up :)

Until next time...
