Exploration Photography Daily View - August 11, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

How about this weather huh? It was so humid that at one point I felt like I had showered and tried to dress myself. You know what I mean? I spent a good part of my day in air conditioning (Thank You Willis Carrier!) but I also had to spend a lot of it in the elements. So what did I do when I got home? Spruced up the Cafe grabbed my camera and got this shot for you.


It gets a bit crowded this time of year but we do our best to make sure all of our diners are satisfied and well fed. Of course disagreements occur now and then. I think this one turned out okay though.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

Today I would like to share a photo that I have been wanting to show you for quite a while now. A little over a month actually. Who goes to the zoo and shoots flowers? Me of course!


One of my favorite flowers at one of my favorite places. A Daisy at the Cape May County Zoo.

Exploration Photography Daily View - August 8, 2016

Hi and welcome to The Daily View!

While at Valley Forge yesterday shooting a scenic panorama I also made a point to visit and photograph "my favorite tree". In fact it is on the left hand side of the panorama but here is a little closer look.

Exploration Photography Daily View - August 7, 2016

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

How was your weekend? Can you believe it's almost over already? It seems that the older I get the faster everything goes. That's why Kim and I do our best to get out there and see whatever we can see and do whatever we can do. Sometimes it's far from home and sometimes it's very close. And then there are the times that it's really short. Time wise that is. Today was a fine example. We had a lot of stuff to do around the house but we also had some errands to run. And in between the errands we made time to drive over to Valley Forge and enjoy the park for a short while. And it was at Valley Forge that I made this panorama to share with you today.


Green grass, blue skies and fluffy clouds. It doesn't get much better than that. Of course it was also very warm but that just goes with the territory.

When we returned home I thought it would be cool to do some video in the Cafe. But I wanted to do something a little different. And I think I hit the mark. The name of the video says it all. "Up Close And Personal At The Cafe". And you can check it out below. Like all of my videos this one is best viewed at full screen and in 1080P resolution. I viewed it on our 46" TV and it was very cool.


This was shot with my Samsung Galaxy S6. Have I mentioned how much I love this phone? Am I the only one who chooses a phone based purely on the camera?

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

We get a lot of guests here at the Cafe. Mostly birds and squirrels. On occasion we will see a groundhog and even a skunk every now and again. I even saw a possum once. But we also see a lot of bees and some wasps. Check out who visited today.


I shot this with my phone so I am glad he was docile.

This evening Kim and I headed out to dinner at P F Chang's in Collegeville Pennsylvania and on our trip home we happened upon a rather heavy downpour of rain. Take a look at the video below to see what it was like driving through it.


Continuing with my "Things I've seen" category I would like to share this with you.


I sure don't want to run into whatever bit the corner off of this sign!

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

The end of another work week is upon us and it sure has been a long one. For me at least. It wasn't necessarily bad but it sure was busy. So this is going to be a quick one. Today's photo is from a few days ago in the Cafe.
