Wednesday Walk by the water
Wednesday Walk - The Challenge continues
My post for this week's Wednesday walk a tag started by me
Wednesday walk challenge
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.
Try and get a few shots not just one
You can look for anything in generally or decide on one subject you want to get shots of.
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 it this week please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I want to thank everyone who is taken part in the challenge i try to visit support and comment on all Wednesday Walk posts, but if I have missed any I apologise, its hard to keep up sometimes.

This week I had time for a little walk near Downtown in Milford CT.
I walked down to the Hotchkiss Bridge and got a couple of shots including this one of the Lisman Landing docks.
Still not many boats in the water, mind you this marina is more popular on weekends

This second shot is taken from the same spot on the bridge, and is looking at the little dock beside the slipway where people can put their boats into the water .
Great to see the greens coming back, seems only a couple of weeks ago this view would have been with most of the trees fairly barren.

This was as I walked off the bridge and down the road towards the slipway, I thought these clouds and reflections were pretty cool.

Walking back I thought i would get a shot of the Bridge where I took the first couple of photos from.
When I first moved here we rented an apartment on the other side of this bridge just off to the left, was a lovely and well maintained complex for a few years, till a new company bought them and then service went down a bit and it was also the right time for us to buy a little condo in Milford so we moved from there.

Thank you @tattoodjay. Milford is really a beautiful place. Love those dock shots.

Is that alright even though I don't post it on actual Wednesday ??
Thanks
Thanks it truly is a beautiful and charming little city
Yes as I say in my post I am pretty relaxed and do not have rules or guidelines so tomorrow is of course fine :)

Want to have your post on the map too?
great idea I will resteem and get the word out
🏃
Thanks so much truly appreciated
Hi @tattoodjay I have just finished my first Wednesday Walk blog and noticed I put the wrong tag down the bottom. I can never seem to change that first tag once it has been submitted. I'm pleased to see you have completed your Wednesday Walk so I will include mine with this one. You have really put Milford CT on the map with your superb photos JJ and these ones are so beautiful. That restaurant looks interesting and I'm sure the combination of great food and water views must make it a popular place to visit. (U & R )

Thank you @tipu
You seem to work or live in quite a scenic area, lucky you! My shots would be of a corporate compound, a huge car park with hundreds of cars and little else.
Its time I changed jobs so I have something more appealing to look at.
I am lucky indeed i live in a small beautiful coastal city and work in the big Apple so I get to see the best of both worlds
Let me get mine rolling. I just came back from the walk 15mins ago.
Cool Lookingforward to seeing it
Done and dusted :)

Thanks kindly and off to visit your post now :) tip!
Thanks my friend! And sorry for the late reply, once again... I've been sick of my ears and overwhelmed with work! Thanks, Jay!
no need to apologize, work can wear us down and hope your feeling better
I will, when I get proper treatment. ET is not a place to be ill. Thanks, my dear Jay!
Ohh yes that is true indeed, I was unfortunate enough to get sick there also but luckily one the second to last day there, I hope you can get somewhere for treatment soon
I will go to Bangkok. Just have to settle things with my insurance. Maybe next week. thanks, Jay!
good luck getting the insurance sorted out and getting good treatment

A nice walk endeed. I think I remember the restaurant building from you earlier posts (it was in b&w, I am right?)
I hope to join this challenge today if I will have enough time to review and process the photos
You have such a good memory Yes I did a shot down the Side of the restaurant in B&W
I don’t actually do my walks on the Wednesday, or I may but I recess a walk from the previous week any day and just share it on the wendnesday, this walk was actually last Thursday I think
Yes, I understand that the walk hasn't to be on Wednesday. e.g. my walk was on Saturday. But I shoot in RAW, so I will sort and process them to jpeg, write (an interesting) post, along with coocking and shopping, and all these after the end of working day :) I am a bit busy person (or a good pretender) :D
I shoot RAW also so I can relate, I have a big backlog of photos to work through as I also shoot a lot of HDR and they take a while to merge and then edit
You sure sound busy if you find the time to join this week or any week I will look forward to seeing it
Nice images and so many beautiful reflections in the water. Wonder how you capture them so well.
Thanks, its all luck capturing shots when the water is very still ie no wind mainlyhelps
