Wednesday Walk Ice on the pond

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 Ice on the pond

Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the bottom of the post ;)

I did have another post prepared for this week, actually one I have had prepared for a few weeks now and I will get to it, but trying to start the year where possible to share recent walks, and even though I haven't been out for many walks in the last week or so, I do have one walk I haven's shared one I took with the new Camera the Sony a7IV

This was a fairly short and quick walk, as it was pretty cool out, but as I was heading out for an early morning visit to the supermarket I had a feeling it was going to be a nice sunrise so I took my camera bag in the car with me, and I am glad I did

When I drove past the pond I saw some nice colors in the sky so parked the car and went for a short photo stroll, initially nice subtle colors in the sky

As I walked back and forth around the pond, not stopping to long in any one spot as it was quite chilly the colors became more vibrant

Some nice yellows and red both in the sky and reflecting on the ice on the pond.

I have heard people say that they used to ice skate on the pond and the building across the Pond used to be a warming house for after skating, the ice wasn't thick enough to be skating on that day and I cant say I have seen anyone skating on it in the couple of years we have lived here.

MInd you if I did see people skating on it I wouldn't give it a go, I have terrible balance when it comes ot skating so would instead just take photos of other skating

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 @papilloncharity, @aurzeq, @baibuaza, @alechi , @borjan and @rayt2

And @elizachecg will send to @junebride


As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Hive from me and this week it is @TBA

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.

Thanks my friend, been slack since that walk, been feeling the cold and chesty, but maybe this afternoon I will get out for a walk before tomorrows potential snow

!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)
!invest_vote

So you get the snow now while I want it? That's unfair 😅 !LOLZ
We have really nice weather at the moment and the good thing is that it's cold, so the snow stays and it doesn't muddy around.

Have a nice walk today, JJ 🌞

Love the shot of the tree standing naked in front of spectacular sunrise and the following photograph.

Tapestry of colour in gentle shades, suddenly bursting as if to greet the new day with cheer!

Thanks always appreciate your kind comments and support ;)

Pleasure, have a good day!

Thank you so much for being so considerate 👍 I know nothing much about photography but as a layman I can say you are a professional photographer with expensive cameras. I have done my usual post about my biking to my village. Thank you once again for being so kind.

Well I do not consider myself a professional photographer but perhaps a serious amateur :)

I will visit your post shortly ;)

Thank you once again.

👍🙂👍

Sunrises and sunsets are undoubtedly the best settings to make our walk a wonderful experience. Magnificent photographs.

I do so agree

thanks and have a great day

yes, it was definitely worth getting the camera out, it's a beautiful ☀️

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

That's a cold walk @tattoodjay
I think it's too cold for me. But I love the color of your stunning photos.
I'm waiting to see people skating on the pond. Hopefully the ice gets thicker soon.

I think it was to cold for me also, haven't been feeling the best for a few days after it, but picking up now, but was worth it to see that sunrise I think

I drove passed the pond yesterday but still havent seen anyone skating there

Such stunning photographs, the large tree in front of the sunrise… amazing. 😎

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

You are welcome 😊
Have a great day too!

Thank you :)

Very nice photos you take, from the clouds in the morning and the sun is about to appear, like it thank you.

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Thank you very much for giveaway.

Most welcome ;)

Beautiful view Wednesday walk. Amazing

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

The dawn is magnificent! And it's also cool that the ice is clean and works like a mirror.
I can see that the camera is working perfectly. Conveys all shades.

Thank you so much for the surprise!

Thanks and yes very happy with the new Camera so far, hope to get out with it again this afternoon

💪💪💪👍👍👍

Those are some beautiful shots! That is really cool that they used to use it for skating. Very small town America right there! I don't know if the ice is going to get to the point we need it to this year. They have already been rescuing ice fishermen on the Bay and that usually doesn't happen until March or April.

I hope no ice fisherman lost there lives, the weather patterns are for sure changing, I drive past the pond every now and again to see if anyone is skating but I dont think the ice has been thick enough for that yet and not sure it will this season

No, I think they were all okay. It's pretty rare that people lose their lives on the ice, but the local governments usually have to pay a considerable amount to rescue them when they are irresponsible.

That’s good
And I dread to imagine how much is spent of rescuing people who are irresponsible

I think they eventually bill back the individuals, but it is still just a dangerous situation all around.

Yes ones irresponsible puts others at risk trying to save them

I think I finally did the #wednesdaywalk correctly @tattoodjay and I think I'm suppose to share the post here in comments, if I read your post correctly. If not, do forgive, scattered artist here lol https://peakd.com/hive-155530/@donnadavisart/wednesday-walk-on-our-shore-with-geese

Yes you did it right, its hard to get it wrong i don't have rules just guidelines :)

It looks like you had a nice walk. I took a nice walk during lunch today. There is a river near my workplace. No pictures though.

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

and a walk even without pictures is good for our body mind and soul, with the cold here I haven't walked for a few days I hope to get out for one this afternoon

Have a great day

The charm of nature that never fades in the photos you share, so beautiful and very charming. 🤗🤗

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

That ice really looks cold, but it gives beautiful reflections of the color though!

IT was pretty cool that day, I felt it in my chest for a few days but feelign better now

After seeing those photos, that makes sense to me. As long as you are feeling better now. But your photos came out beautiful!

Yes a lot better thanks

That's good to hear👍

I have a pretty scenic route, going to the supermarket but this is too much!
Wonderful pictures :)

My Wednesday walk is not recent but I hope it is interesting.
