Wednesday walk challenge and Steem Basic Income Give away

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

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Try to limit yourself to a set distance or time from the starting location, say 5 Blocks, 5 Minutes walk or whatever and see what you can find in that short distance

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.

Following me and resteeming the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion, but you may have a better chance of receiving a Steem Basic Income Share if you do.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, resteem and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk, plus I will be sending @steembasicincomeshares to a selection of those who participate.

Actifit

A good App that works well in conjunction with the Wednesday Walk or any day walk is @actifit, which rewards you with Actifit Tokens and Steemit Upvotes, if you use the app to track your steps and do a post of your actifit total each day.

If you do a lot of activity I do recommend you check it out

All Spruced up for the 4th of July celebration

OK before you say it, I know the 4th Has passed, but I got this shots before the 4th, or maybe on the 4th and thought they would make a cool mix for a Wednesday Walk post

Now if your thinking the shots are of people dressed up for the 4th, Sorry then I have misled you, let's start up with a street sign all spruced up which gave me a chuckle and I had to get s shot to share

One thing I feel is done so well here is so many properties fly the national flag proudly on their properties, more so that I have seen ever in any other country I have been to and this house is a good example of that, and also has some nice decorations and detail on the porch.

And this Property which happens to be next to the one in the previous shot has not only one but three flags waving proudly

And lastly where a flag used to always fly but not at the moment, the Flag at Point Rock I believe it is called, the flagpole is that it was recently deemed as failing and does not fly the flag anymore, people are wanting it replaced and there is a talk of a fundraiser online to raise money for it, but in the meantime some has put a small flag up beside the flagpole.

Steem Basic Income give away

I mentioned in the guidelines that from this week I will be sponsoring a few who join the #wednesdaywalk challenge with shares on Steem Basic Income

What is Steem Basic Income you may ask well here is how they explain it

Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content. so I have decided to send some Steem Basic Income shares to 5 people selected through a random draw so on the weekend all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk. @bigtom13, @enosh, @boddhisattva, @shaunf, @rem-steem, to all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk . And a special bonus this week @elizacheng will send one SBI share to @leylar,

I would love to be able to give everyone who joins a Steem Basic Income share, but I don't make enough steem each week to do so, but I will try and share them around fairly between those that join the challenge

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

Thanks for the resteem Appreciated

I love to see our flag any time, anywhere and I also love the banners on those beautiful homes. Go USA! The flag on the rock would look amazing and I sure hope it will get replaced. I have a friend who is so patriotic that if she is driving and hears the National Anthem playing, she will pull over, get out of the car and stand with her hand on her heart until the end. Crazy!
I finally found the time to post my walk. https://steemit.com/wednesdaywalk/@whatisnew/wednesday-walk-irresistible-irises

I do love seeing the flags waving proudly in this country I have traveled a lot and I can not think there is any country that compares to the Patriotism shown here with the flags waving proudly all over.
I have a feeling that Flag o the rock will be rep[laced for sure people are so proud of it and if the city doesn't fund the replacement I am confident the people of the city will :)

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk this week :)

Thanks Kindly, good morning to you and yes I had a nice and quiet 4th Just what I needed :)

Awesome ..🙂
I really hope the flag pole gets restored.

I am hoping the same it’s kind of sad seeing the pole and no flag

Hi @tattoodjay,

I want to nominate you in a contest to join @ntopaz - a dapp for art we have here. I do not notice you having used it before and that is a requirement, so let me know if you have posted there in the past.

I've used it, it's easy and the photos come out very well. You will just need a one photo post and to drop a link in their discord. No future requirement, but of course they hope you will stay on. They have good upvotes if they like you work.

@dswigle is my other nominee, so I hope you will agree.

I will do a post in day or two, reviewing the site and nominating you if you will do it :)

Take care, Sharon

I am pretty sure i have never used nTopaz, I have hear dit mentioned a few times and seen posts using the tag, but honestly i have never taken the time to look into it

YEs if you just tell me what I need to do I would be willing to check it out and do what is needed so you could nominate me

Awesome! TY! It's easy and my post will also be a review to let you know more about it. It's not hard at all :)

OK cool do tag me in it so I don’t miss it :)

Thanks i just saw your walk thanks so much for joining again :)

Thank you for your great comments too.

MY pleasure :)

That is so true about Americans and their flag! Although, it was nothing like that in my neighbourhood on July 1st. However, I am sure they were houses in some ares with Canadian flags. Great shots of course! These are very beautiful beech houses 😊

Ohh yah I love the beach houses here, I would love one but they are way way way out of my budget lOL

I bet they are! Let's hope the Steem will go rapidly up in couple of years and you will be able to buy one, lol.

LOl that would be great but I would be happy even if it was just enough to supplement my income when I retire I am not that worried about a big fancy house

I was just kidding, but I know what you mean 😊
