It is not an important moment for only you but this topic is close to my heart so here I come with an aimless walking spree in my current city, the Australian Capital Canberra. I am sure season 18 of the Steemit Engagement Challenge will bring several talented photographers and we shall enjoy their creativity.

  

Here is my presentation for your first challenge:

There are days when you do nothing but go for a walk. Yesterday was Sunday, so I did the same.

First, I had my breakfast, picked up both my cameras, and set out on foot.

Yes, you heard it right. Many times, when I am doing nothing special or feeling bored, going for a walk is a good option for me. My aimless walking gives me relief from all mental stresses and gives me a chance to gain new experiences.

It especially breaks me from the fixed routine of my daily life and takes me to a new place, which makes me feel fresh. So yesterday was one such day. I get a new joy from doing such a trip. For me, traveling helps me to keep myself mentally and physically fit.

Don't you think that going out like this gives us an opportunity to know ourselves better? Traveling is a different experience for me, and if I am walking alone in nature, then going for a walk is a great option whenever I get a chance.

First of all, I went to the church close to my house and stayed there for around 40 minutes, then walked to the nearest local bus stand and traveled to Gungahlin, a suburb of Canberra. Dear friends, I will not give you a picture of this trip as I can give you only up to five images in this post.

I have my city card, which has enough money in it that I can travel anywhere in my city by boarding any bus, and on weekends it becomes almost free, so I caught the first bus.

Gungahlin has a walk-in place where we can watch free flying birds and photograph them, but this contest forbids me to upload two related images, so I will not share the extensive collection of birds I captured.

But I can tell you that people come here to watch the birds while walking and watching 550 birds of 57 different species from Australia and other parts of the world. But I can give you the images of these birds in another post of mine.

When I was done with the walk here, I came to the bus stand again and took a bus for Teslstra Tower and had another walk on a hilly route, but as this contest restricts me from posting two related pictures, I will upload just a single image from this place, although I took at least 50 pictures from different angles.

Finally, I stopped at the nearest mall and had a haircut since my last haircut was on March 30th and I was feeling too awkward. That was around 6 p.m. when the Canberra shops closed down for Sunday, so I walked through the park and reached home.

I was eager to reach home as I had to coordinate with my curation team for the coming month and submit our combined application. I am glad I managed to submit that with my senior friends whom I am going to invite for this contest, @suboohi and @el-nailul along with my friend @josepha, who has plans to visit Australia in the coming summer season.

Note: I have used different cameras and my phone for different images in this post as shown in the title image.

I hope you enjoyed my aimless walking
