Mono monday from a recent walk from the port into the historic district
Good Morning, another week begins may it be a good one for you
As I tend to do I am sharing a few mono images today from a recent walk starting at the Port and heading into the historic District here in New Bedford.
I may well share a few color images from this walk as my Wednesday walk post this week, as For a few reasons I had almost a week where I didnt get out for walks till I took this walk yesterday.
When I visit this area I park at the portits a car park, for the port, a Restaurant that is there, and a small clam shack by the water, her eis the view near where I was parked

I had a few issues yesterday, firs tof, my tripod was very gunked up I guess opening the legs to use it was a real challenge, but I ended up being able to, I suspect since I spend so many walks on beaches sand had got into it, I thought i may have to buy a new one, but I tried cleaning it up and lubricating it a bit and it seems to be fine now,, will see how it works on my next couple of outings

The next issue I had is the remote control I use for my camera wasnt working I suspetc the battery dies, I will pick up new batteries today, now I can use the camera without the remote, but early morning with long exposures and since i often take three shots at differetn exposures, called exposure bracketing, using a remote reduces the chance of moving the camera as you are clicking onthe remote and not ppressing the shutter button on the camera.
So I did mess up and had a few shots that were blurry and not usable, but also got some OK shots
but speaking of blurry shots this next one is a result of me taking a long exposure and standing onthe road, and a car came along so I had to move off the street, I kind of think its funky and cool
