Wednesday Walk La Palme Farm
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
For this weeks post I am going to share a walk I did a few weeks ago, that week I walked on quite a few trails and only shared one as my Wednesday walk post, the reason I am going back to this wwalk, is although I have bene out most mornings to catch the sunrise, its been to spots I have shared before, or its be very steamy and my camera kept fogging up making taking photos a challenge, I think I have found a solution to that, part of the issue is I have the AC running in the car, so its quite a change from the temp in the house and car to that outside when I get to a spot, so now I am putting the camera in the car a little while before I head out and when I drive I turn off the AC, lets see how that works on my next walk.
Thi walk is on one of the trails that is maintained/supported by the Buzzards bay Coalition and is on La Palme Farm

With nearly 50 acres of meadows and forests, LaPalme Farm celebrates Acushnet’s natural beauty and pastoral charm. Hikers can explore more than a mile of trails on a journey through the Acushnet River Reserve, its a short drive from where i live and such a beautiful trail to explore as I hope these photos will show
I'm not sure why most of these photos are with an ISO of 50, I never purposely set it to that, so I probably must have bumped the button and changed the setting without realizing it

To get to the start of the trail you walk across a field and then come to this cleared path heading to the trees

it was so fresh and green at the time, quite a change from now with it having been so dry the greens are fading or struggling at the moment

The reflection was like a mirror, in fact this next shot is all mostly the reflection in the water but rotated 180 degrees

There is something so calming and relaxing being by the water for me, I stopped and took a breather, soaked in the fresh air and listened tot he sounds of the wood for a few minutes in this spot before continuing on the trails

Weekly giveaway of shares
This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @hoosie, @neoseven, @kaminchan, @jacoalberts, @toffer and @evernoticethat
Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.
