Wednesday walk challenge Mondo Ponds Trail

Wednesday walk challenge Mondo Ponds Trail 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.

Walking the Mondo Pond trails

Mondo Pond trails is a little walk around a few little ponds here in Milford its such a nice place for a relaxing stroll, I have shared shots from this area but have mostly focused looking over the water of the ponds, so for this post, I will mainly focus on the actual trail themselves.
As you can see it was a nice day for the walk, when I first started I was thinking the colors of Autumn/Fall were not out that much yet.

But as I walked further around the trail I found more colors both on the trees and on the paths.

Speaking of on the ground, here are some fallen leaves in one of the puddles, speaking of which there were lots of puddles and little streams running over the trails in places as the day before I went for the walk we had a fairly strong Northeaster come through which caused a lot of flooding around the city.

Now I did say I would focus on the trail itself and not the ponds, but this s one pond I dont often share photos of as it is often covered with this green layer, which sometimes does not look hmm shall I say charming, but witht he fall colors I thought it looked better than it usually does.

And finishing off with another shot as I countinued my walk around the ponds.

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 randomly send some Steem to add shares for some of my followers so on the weekend I sponsored the following people
@starjewel, @roxy-cat, @bigtom13, @shaunf, @minimining, @nelinoeva, @sgbonus, @allyson19, @artgirl,

All people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk,
And a special bonus this week @elizacheng will send one SBI share to @steven-patrick

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.

Beautiful and I’m very jealous of your walk! One of my favorite things is to see the fall leaves on the ground after they fall.

thanks It was a lovely walk, I to love the fall colors but as for jealous I can relate the colors are now at peak and I see other peoples shots but for a few reasons I cannot get out for photo walks at the moment

So sorry! Hope you are feeling a little better!

Thanks I am improving, I do need a follow up but hopefully all is good ;)

Amazing man! The fall colors are awesome!

Thanks the colors were quite delightful that day

You are welcome! I can't wait to visit that part of the country in the Fall.

it is sure a beautiful place to visit any time of year but especially in Fall

Yeah I bet.

Thank you for the sbi, @tattoodjay. Much appreciated.
