Hi there and welcome to the Exploration Photography Daily View! Today Kim and I took a drive to West Fairmount Park in Philadelphia and visited the Shofuso Japanese House and Garden. Another local destination that I never even heard of until about a week or so ago. Shofuso, a gift from Japan to the Citizens of The United States, is built on the site of the 1876 centennial celebration and is a symbol of post war peace between our two nations. You can read more about it here and here. Of course I got lot's of photos that I will be sharing but for today I am presenting to you a shot I got while at a different location within Fairmount Park. After the Japanese House we took a short walk over to the Horticultural Center and saw this.
Talk about a lucky shot!
Though my photos from the Japanese House are not ready I do have a pretty cool video to share from the Japanese Garden. This is Kim feeding the Koi in of course the Koi Pond.
As always this is best viewed at full screen and in 1080P.
Hi there and welcome to The Exploration Photography Daily View. A while back I wrote about something that I tend to do when on a photo shoot that sometimes results in a better or more interesting subject than I set out to photograph. Turning around. Today as I was on our deck shooting some of our geraniums I turned and looked up and saw something I thought would be really cool to share with you. And here it is.
The Moon and Clouds! Now I must admit that the sky was much lighter when I shot this but I used a little artistic license and darkened it. I think the clouds are stunning with a black background. What do you think? Oh and the geraniums? I got some really nice shots of those too and will share them in the near future. And hey how about another video from Peddlers Village? Well okay then! Here you go.
Here you have a cage full of pigeons, a Koi/Fish Pond and a Train. Who could ask for more? And that's all for now folks! I thank you for stopping by and I sure hope you see you again real soon at the blog. And remember to turn around every now and again.
