Wednesday Walk shots from a few walks this week
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 week I am sharing shots from a few walks I took over the last week, one or two shots from each spot I visited, to be honest I haven't been walking as much, as far as distance goes over the last week, for no real other good reason other than I have bene struggling with motivation and just been visiting spots and enjoying the cool breeze by the water and watching the sun rise.
But that is all changing from today, I cant be a slacker for walking when I am hosting the Wednesday Walk, so from tomorrow morning I am going to start stepping up my step count each morning when I go out, and start again doing my work outs on the Quest 2 VR headset, I have put on too much weight over the last few weeks and now its time to start loosing some of the weight.
but enough waffling so where did I walk this week
I think these photos are in the order of the walks, Starting by the Pond in Buttonwood park, since we had some rain recently I have swung by the pond to see if the water level has risen, but not as yet the levels is still quite low, not that you can see that in this shot, but near the end of the post I will show that, what caught my eye for this shot was the reflections

Next up I am behind the Cisco Brewery Restaurant on the pier there, and a few months ago they added this walk way which gets lowered down to a little platform, perhaps so people from boats can walk up to go to the restaurant

In the same area, the end of the Harbor Walk, and you can see the gates built into the wall that can close and seal of the road if a heavy storm or hurricane comes in

and on East beach again, one of the odd days I saw some one else taking photos, the long exposure gives a bit of a ghostly effect

And back where I started this post by the pond in Buttonwood Park, this shows better how low the water level is, where I am standing for this shot is normally covered with water and part of the pond

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.
