Wednesday Walk a snapshot of walks

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 :)

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

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.

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.
b. Your content must be ORIGINAL CONTENT
c. Please include at least 50 Words in your post

this weeks walk

For this weeks post I am showing a snapshot of aa few walks this week, I couldn't decide on which walk to focus on so decided to share one shot from each walk I did in the last week. there is another reason or this since i am submitting this also onto Dreemport, there is an additional challenge this week which is we are making our steps COUNT TO INFLUENCE SOMEONE IN A BEAUTIFUL WAY!

Well for me all my walks are pretty much the same reason, that is to get some fresh air, some steps in and take a few photos, walking is my way of relaxing and clearing my head, and as you will not all of this photos are from early morning walks which for me a walk at sunrise ideally by the water is the best way to start the day and makes me a better person and hopefully my photos make people smile and feel good

Now onto the walks I have done over the last week or so

This first one is beside the pier at the end of the Harbor walk, the walk I do most here in New Bedford, its a great spot to get some steps in and some mornings I get to see some lovely sunrises

This next shot is beside the road next to the piers downtownit was a kind of moody morning so I shot this looking down the no longer used train tracks and waited for a car to come by to get a light trail

Some really lovely views and shots from your early morning walks. It must be so quiet and peaceful at that time. I've walked a few times late at night or early hours with my hubby when we have been coming home from being out with friends and it is really quite special. I love the solitude and the feeling of having a little space of the planet all to myself for a moment or three in time :-) I haven't yet joined in with wednesdaywalk but will try to do so this coming week as I've read a few wednesdaywalk posts since I started on the Hive and Proof of Brain in June and thoroughly enjoyed the diversity of perspectives and learning about other people's lives, homes and communities around the world. My walks tend to happen during daylight hours and often with my kids...I wonder where it will take me next week for the wednesdaywalk? ;-)

I do love the peace and quiet in my morning walks in fact heading out shortly

Looking forward to you joining the walks anytime of day any place but always welcomed

Thank you! I will walk anyway but contributing to the wednesdaywalks chat is on my TO DO list for next week. Catch you on the flip side ;-)

I'm FINALLY getting to you now!!! it's almost 9 pm LOL and I'm just getting to yours!

why??? well - because you'll see for MY wednesdaywalk post (that I still am writing and I hope that i get it done before midnight hahahah)

ok today - its not your 3rd picture that I love the most.
it's #2 and the final one! hehehe

I really loved those train tracks - maybe because it was different? so it stood out more to me? hehehehe but definitely high up on the list is the lighthouse! I'm a sucker for lighthouses as most people are hehehe

but that one looks a bit different than what we're used to!!!! It looks like something out of a Thomas Kincade painting!!!

I can't wait to tell you what I did with my steps today! They mattered more to me than every other step in the last 7 weeks hehehe

coming soon!

and great job on your steps!!! :)

I see you gif your post done
I will be checking it a little later
I am just about to get ready and head out it may nit be much of a walk this morning a good chance of rain but I am hoping it doesn’t start till after sunrise lol

Thanks for your thoughts I like to try and mix up my photos and the tracks one was a more moody perhaps grungy one gray to read your throughts on it

Although I think fishing is boring I would love to swap places with this fisherman 😊
Such beautiful photos as always, JJ, especially the first one is amazing and deserves a !BEER 😃


!invest_vote

@johannpiber and @tattoodjay I think you both need to go deep-sea fishing to really up the excitement! There is such a huge difference between dropping a line off a pier and tossing it overboard in hopes that you DON'T get something stronger than you. :)

My cousins own charter boats for deep-sea fishing and I swear to God, I love it every time I go.

That does sound exciting and fun I must admit

I'll turn you yet!! :)) Maybe.

I will concede to a maybe 🤔

Well, my parents have a small fish pond and when we were kids, we used to go fishing to a small river nearby. But these fish were meant for family lunch or for dinner - what should I do with a fish bigger than I am? Invite all my relatives for dinner? 🤣🤣🤣

Now seriously, I have watched such fishing activities on tv and it's amazing and sometimes funny to see when people catch such a strong fish for the first time and realize that they are really stronger than they had thought. It must be a great experience that can't be compared to fishing at a pond.

I know only a few fishermen here who have the best gear and the most important thing for them is that there's enough beer ;)

My pleasure mate, that's true, such a single fisherman on the beach makes a good image, especially at sunrise.

Hey @johannpiber, here is a little bit of BEER from @tattoodjay for you. Enjoy it!

Did you know that you can use BEER at dCity game to **buy dCity NFT cards** to rule the world.

These are all stunning and I always hate to pick any favorites, lest you think that the others are lesser in my eyes. Not so, but, a girl has to choose. :)

The light on all of them is just so perfect, how you can get it each time is amazing. It is just gorgeous!

One of my favorites, is the lone fisherman, just like it usually is, one man with a pole, trying for his catch of the day. It is a powerful image in what it says about fishermen. The lone dove.

The other that I really like is the railroad tracks. I know it doesn't have a lot of the aha beauty of the others, but, it has that forlorn, forgotten look that appealed to me. You always capture such perfection.

Thank you and I am just home, and trying to get out a Wednesday Walk!

Thank you for the beauty!

Never feel bad about letting me know which you prefer I don’t take it as a criticism of the others but it does give me great feedback

Ps those two are my favorites I will admit

Did you hear me gasp when my eyes landed on the first pic?
Oh so gorgeous 😍

Awww thanks thats so sweet

Have a great day

Pier with fisherman in gentle morning light and the lighthouse are the two captures most enjoyed today.

Always difficult to decide since all are different, thanks for always bringing something new to enjoy JJ.

!BEER
!PIZZA

Thanks Joan so Kind of you, I hope your week is going well


@tattoodjay! I sent you a slice of $PIZZA on behalf of @joanstewart.

This is impressive. The Initiative you have here is super cool and I've been part of it since I found out about it.

Talking about fishing, it's not a good sight over here. It's probably because all those that go fishing usually do it in places that are not so neat. We also don't have recreational fishing arenas so, I've never known how fun it can be to play the role of a fisherman.

Your pictures are very professional. Your Actifit count is quite alot.

Well Done ✌️

Thanks and yes the difference between recreational fishing and the need to fish to survive is huge
I have seen fishing boats like you shared here in a few countries and do know well the difference

I could use a peaceful, quiet walk right now!
Thanks for showing us your walks... I really need to destress!!!

I am glad if my photos help some to destress

Have a great day

Sorry...
And yes, your photos destress!!!!

Oh my goodness, you walked up to 6016 steps, that means you took alot of your time walking and taking different kind of eye Cathy picture.

The early morning pictures comes out beautiful, expecially the sunset that look so Charming 🤩

Will be expecting the post you'll make about the Jones beach, the surrounding is attracting me.. hehehehe

Nice walk on Wednesday !

Thanks, on mornings I get out for a walk I try to get at least 5K steps in, even if there is a nice sunrise, on days the sunrise isn't so special I may get even more

I have so many shots to review and edit but I will get to the Jones beach ones sometime ;)

Wow what a great walk you had and such an early time in the morning. Nice clips of pictures you have shared with us and I think I love the first and fourth ones more.

Congrats to those who won from the random pick, thanks Jay for your great support to the community and also to the Dreemport challenge.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Thank you and for your feedback on the shots you like it’s nice to get feedback

Grand! I can't pick one but the lighthouse is outstanding. I am in love with your photography.

Thanks so much there will be a post at sometime showing more of the lighthouse

A lighthouse is something that we currently do not have (and as I know have not had so far) in Hungary, so I also find it very interesting.

I have not visited any foreign countries so far, so I saw lighthouses only on photos, videos, and in movies and in video games.

Being a landlocked country it’s to be expected no lighthouses there

We have a few near us I will share some of them soon

Actually, my problem is that I get no notification of posts from my friends. I think this is common with Peaked users so I am trying to sort out this problem. Maybe you can help...

I know on peakd you can mark people as favorites and see them as a separate feed that works for me

I will check where and how I can mark people as my favorite then, thanks a lot.

If you go to there main page beside the button to follow them is three dots if you click on that one if the option is to add to favorites

Aww.. thank you so much @tattoodjay. My post is just getting ready .. I had to pour my heart into this post.. I am not of it would make you smile.. but I tried.

Most welcome and looking forward to your post ;)

The harbor and the lighthouse just look great with the moody lighting love the train tracks and the sunrise nice walk you had :)

Thanks I couldn’t pick just one walk this week lol 👍

A mix is good it was a enjoyable post :)

Thanks 👍🙂👍

The landscape is very beautiful, the picture is perfect especially with the state of the water in the sea and lakes.

Thanks I am lucky to have these nice spots to visit for my morning walks ;)

Beautiful shots as always. It really looks like you have found yourself an awesome little town to settle into! Have you made any trips back to your old town since you retired?

Thanks and yes I am lucky so many beautiful spots here,
We did go back a couple of times when selling our house there but havent been back since

You live in New Bedford now? Lucky you to have these sights so close by.

I have been gone for quite some time. I don't know why. But here I am with another Wednesday Walk In Verse

Yes we live here now
I just visited your post it was awesome

I'm so happy for you! Although I will miss your fabulous shots of NYC.

Some days I miss NYC but am finding lots of places to visit here

Beautiful skies, @tattoodjay! I really love that first one with the splashes of red.

Thanks fir your feedback always appreciated

Beautiful photos, @tattoodjay! like them all but my favourites are the sunrise over the fisherman and the lighthouse, of course.
