Exploration Photography Daily View - July 13, 2015

Hi folks! Well Monday is in the bag and I have to say I am still kind of beat from our busy weekend. But that's okay because we had a great time.

Today I would like to share a photo I made while in front of The National  Museum of American History - Smithsonian Institute. This is an old time ice cream truck that I thought looked good with the Washington Monument in the background. And I love the clouds too.


And that's all for now. I thank you for stopping by and hope to see you again real soon.

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 12, 2015

Hi and welcome to the Daily View! We had a very busy weekend and just got back a little while ago so this is going to be quick. We spent the last couple of days in Washington DC and on the way back to our car this afternoon I came across this guy.


He was great! Not afraid of me at all and in fact he even ate some bread from my hand. Check out this video and you'll see what I mean.

And I'll be back real soon!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 11, 2015

Well folks it's gonna be another busy day so I would like to share today's Daily View early. Check out the flowers that are growing on the tree that holds the nest I shared yesterday.


I'm not sure what kind of tree this is so if anyone does please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 10, 2015

Hi all! Welcome to Friday and welcome to another Exploration Photography Daily View. I'm not sure if I shared this with you before but even if I have I'd like to share it again.

There is a tree growing next to our pool that gets bigger and bigger every year. But this year it has a new edition. A bird, probably a robin, has been building a nest in it. We first saw it a few weeks ago but now it like the tree is also getting bigger.


I did take a quick shot inside the nest with my phone's camera but it appears to be empty. But I do often see a robin coming and going. I am not sure when robins lay eggs so maybe it just hasn't been used yet? I'll just have to wait and see. I will of course be very careful not to disturb it or any possible future contents.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 9, 2015

Today's Daily view is a quick shot I made with my phone's camera on my way out the door for work this morning. Check it out.


This is our hydrangea. Last year it didn't flower at all and this year it only produced one flower. And you are looking at it. There is still time for more but I think this is it. We'll just have to wait and see.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 8, 2015

Hi and welcome to the Exploration Photography Daily View. Yesterday I shared a cool squirrel photo that I shot when I was working on this photo which I originally intended to show you. Boy, that was a mouth full!


These are buds growing out of our hosta. Pretty soon it will be at full bloom. Hopefully I'll get some shots of that to share too.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Exploration Photography Daily View - July 7, 2015

Anyone who frequents my Daily View knows that I tend to post a lot of squirrel photos. And today I am continuing that tradition with this.


I was outside shooting some frames with the intent of using one of the completed shots for today's photo when this guy came along. He (or she?) is one of our regulars. He is the one that comes to our door and waits for me to give him peanuts. Well I had some peanuts leftover and put them on that railing he is sitting on and as you can see he helped himself. He is not a shy or proud squirrel. But that's okay. He is welcome here any time.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...
