Wednesday Walk Allens Pond Wildlife reserve

#NOTE
***Sorry last week I was not able to visit everyone's post, well I did, but did not leave comments but this week the numbness in my fingers has almost all gone so I will try and visit and leave comment son everyone's post 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 weeks Wednesday Walk post I am sharing a few shots from a Visit to Allens Pond Wildlife reserve and beach,
It was a warm steamy morning, initially my camera lens was fogging up, but finally it got used to the temp and I could get a few shots, then some fog rolled in was a nice time out even if I didn't take a lot of photos.

Starting on the beach Loved the sheen on the wet sand

I then walked into the reserve a little, the field that one walks through to the trails, normally has a path cut through it, but recently they had cut down the field, with the couple of machines shown in this next photo

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 @jeansapphire, @occupy-mars, @sagesigma, @hopestylist, @mers and @steven-patrick

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.

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

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Here is my link to this day #wednesdaywalk

https://peakd.com/hive-155530/@nkemakonam89/a-walk-to-our-farmland

👍🙂👍

I really like those pictures with the mist or fog, they make it seem like anything could happen!

What are they going to do with the hay???

This post has been manually curated by the VYB curation project

It did give a mystical perhaps magical feel with the fog

to be hoest no ides what they will do with the hay maybe it goes to a local farm nearby

That would be perfect, or maybe a farm rescue or something!

!PIZZA

Actually a farm rescue would make more sense since it is a sanctuary, or perhaps they even use them within the sanctuary to feed the animals over winter

Do they have animals there that eat hay???

!PIZZA !ALIVE

Thanks and Most welcome

Beautiful photographs 😍😍

I'm glad that all is well again with you, a good photographer can make only beautiful photos, are all wonderful, I liked thank you!

Thanks, today will be the test for how my hand is doing as Wednesday is generally my busiest day for being active on hive

Wonderful Shot's as always. The golden hour one's is my favorite.

Happy Wednesday!

Wow, the beach shot is so beautiful, I can't get tired of seeing that view 🤩😍😍.

Thank you so much for your continuous support JJ, I'm really so grateful. I saw the prize and I wasn't sure why it came but I do now 🥰🥰.

It is such a nice spot with both the beaches and the nature trails, I will no doubt visit there again soon

and most welcome ;)

Yes it is and I can't wait to see more shots when you visit again 🥰🥰.

🤗🤗

This is a great one you have pulled together and I hope I should give it a try.. nice shot and I hope you had fun touring the Allen's pond

👍🙂👍

Enjoy your day

Thanks you to

First of all, I'm glad to hear that your hand is getting better!

I love your first photo with the wet sand. It's as if the wet sands bring out more of the color in the background...?

Some of the photos you shared today took me on a bit of a memory trip as well... Some time ago I worked at a company focused on the farming and animal industries. I sometimes went out with the truck to collect similar bails to the ones in your photos very early in the mornings.

The moment I saw your photos, I actually got the smell of the freshness and the wet grass of the early morning... Some nice memories to have...

Thank you for sharing your photos with us!

Thanks today will be the real test as Wednesday is my busiest day on here

I loved the view in the first photo the wet sand was reflecting and perhaps enhancing the color in the sky

glad my post brought back some nice memories for you

I hope your hand will stand the test today! I hope for the best for you!

so far its not to bad some tingling but nothing like it was a week ago

That's great news! I really do hope it's going to stay that way and just get better from here on!

Good to hear your fingers have returned feeling, not easy to do much without them!

Thoroughly enjoyed lighting on the wet beach and sun coming up over the fields both take one away to dwell on the beauty around.

!LUV

Thanks today will be the test as Wednesday is my most active day on hive, funny thing is I know I am ambidextrous but I thought I did most things with my right hand, but have discovered I use my hands kind of equally for a mix of things

Have a great day

Depending on my mood much the same, teachers caused confusion when younger forcing one to be right handed only.... Yup, hope you cope and back right as reign!

I remember a nun in primary school whacking my hand with a ruler for writing with my left hand

so I write with my right hand still even though i actually wrote neater with my left hand back then LOL

take care

Beautiful hay bails...very impressionist with those colors!

Thanks for the Hive, too!!

Most welcome :)

Thanks for the Hive 🙏 your #wednesdaywalk is a fun part of every week for me. Cool walk today for you. You captured the wet sand very well and a trail leading into the fog always looks so full of promise and adventure.

Most welcome for the hive

Glad your enjoying the Wednesday walk

Oh wow, that fog is a definite mood for sure! I love the photos. I think the mono edit of the hay really turned out well. Things are finally a bit more green here and with the winds we have been getting, the fields look more like lakes with waves. It is really pretty on my drive home.

We got some ran overnight so hoping that will help here as it’s still pretty dry here
It was a cool almost surreal feeling that morning with the fog

Love the photographs especially the first one and the one with fog and sunset. 😎😊
Such a powerful images @tattoodjay
The colour is great. The haze… fog does add to the atmosphere 😊 I like it.
Thanks for sharing.

I just posted my short walk around a port : Walk around ~ the port and beach in Sotogrande Spain 🇪🇸

Have a wonderful day further 👋🏻😊 do take it easy, don’t overdo it 😉🤓

Thanks so much it was a cool feel that morning off to visit your post now

You are welcome @tattoodjay 😊👋🏻
Must be so refreshing, I miss those days. Here it is muggy always hehehe 🤭
Thanks a lot 😉

Quite interesting shots with the cast of the sun.
I always love the mood the sun gives to pictures.

thanks so much and yes indeed the sun and fog can give such a magical feel

I really like the morning fog! It changes everything: the view, the sounds, the smells. Great photos!

Hello dear friend @tattoodjay good morning
It's good news to know that the numbness in your hands has subsided.
I love to walk at dawn and appreciate those beautiful sunrises, and how golden it reflects in nature.
Beautiful images, thank you very much for showing us

Here is my post about this Wednesday walk

Thanks for sharing your link

and mother nature does the work making places look beautiful

As always, beautiful photos! There is a lot of fog today, the photos look very relaxing. This is my Wednesday Walk this week 😉: https://peakd.com/hive-155530/@jadeaca/on-a-wednesday-walk-while-the-sun-is-rising

Thanks so much
I will visit your post shortly

Glad to hear that the numbness in your hands is getting better. it get's worse with repetitive tasks so I totally understand if you couldn't comment or reply. There are numerous posts here and most people wouldn't understand the carpal tunnel syndrome but I do. As always your pictures are looking amazing especially the golden sunrise with the warm yellow hues. Thank you for sharing and enjoy Thursday ahead :}

Thanks for both your visit and understanding
I had carpal tunnel surgery before and maybe I may need it again in the future but if I can pace myself and avoid it it’s for the better

Shot of the wet beach is awesome. You getting a touch of carpal tunnel?

Thanks and yeah, I had it before and had the surgery, feels like its coming back so slowed down for a bit and the numbness eased off, will see how it goes

I really hope your hand is feeling better! All the comments are not helping, yes? It is not stopping you from getting such magical memories to take home with you.

The fog, the sun, the bales of hay!! What a great way to walk through a post! Sorry I am so late!

Here is my post. https://peakd.com/hive-155530/@dswigle/cows-clover-and-honeysuckle

Thanks for sharing your link

MY fingers are tingling a little after yesterday but not as bad as it was, but now will go a bit quieter on commenting for a day or two :)
I cant complain its nothing major just annoying and if i am sensible maybe I wont need the surgery again, our Daughter in Law has been in hospital a couple of days now, today should find out if she needs her Gall Bladder removed today or in a week or two, so tingling fingers is nothing ;)

I had my gallbladder taken out about 6 years ago. I had on again off again issues with it, and when it got a cyst on it. They took it out. Life has been pretty amazing since, but of course all of our parts have a purpose, so great thought goes in to removing one.

Good luck to Jeanne!

Thanks she is home now but has to schedule a follow up appointment to discuss scheduling having it removed

She'll be ablevto eat anything then!! 😋

I know she will like that lol

Your pictures are unique. I wish you more and more success with good health and a good sense of life.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤝🤝

Thanks so kind of you

Thank you so much @tattoodjay ! My wallet looked fuller! :) I hope you are having a great day!
