Wednesday walk on the beach 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.
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 it this week 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
For this weeks walk, let's take a walk on one of the local beaches, Walnut Beach in Milford CT

I love when I can get to this beach for the sunrise, the beach is generally very quiet with hardly anyone there, and I find it so refreshing walking along the beach, the morning I took this walk I left my sandals in the car and felt the sand between my toes as I walked along the beach, such a great way to start the day.
This will also be my post for BeachWednesday - led by @lizanomadsoul and initiated by @uwelang

Zooming in a bit notices that there was some people fishing at the end of this rock wall, so I decided to walk that way.

Part of the walk I did on the sand, but I also went onto the boardwalk as you can see here, I was not the only one enjoying a morning walk.

From the boardwalk I got this shot of what I thinnk is an Egret, it was clearly enjoying an early morning by the water also.
I am lucky that this shot came out somewhat OK, I had the camera set for a lower shutter speed of 1/5 of a second as I had been taken shots on my tripod, but when I saw this egret I snapped a shot handheld before it flew away, I normally don't go below 1/60 of a second handheld especially when zoomed in like this, but luckily I got an OK shot.
Especially since Birds seem to sense when I am about to take a photo of them and they fly away from me.

And finishing off with the shot of the fisherman I mentioned in the second photo,
I liked this view of them with the fishing boats in the background.
And this ends my walk, well it ends the photos for this post, I continued walking back and forth along the beach for about half an hour after I got that last shot, even though it wasn't an overly colorful sunrise, walking the beach is always a great way to start the day.
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
@delishtreats, @maracuja, @bashadow, @birdsinparadise, @old-guy-photos, @madlenfox, @lovablesoul
All people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk, 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.
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.

My favorite photo is of the guys fishing. For some reason it reminds of the movie Jaws :-)
I think that is an Egret too. Nice shot with the zoom.
I forgot to post my link here earlier today. Meet your ancestors
That guy is still scratching his head about those new fangled smt's lol
@molometer I didnt see the Jaws in that photo till you mentioned it LOL
Loved your walk
