Wednesday Walk Challenge

What is the Wednesday Walk Challenge? An awesome challenge that @tattoodjay put together to get us outside in the real world and use our legs to take a nice little walk and of course, take some wonderful shots of things along the way. I did it one week and loved it as it really is as easy for me to do like when I take my little one to the park, I just take the camera with me. Today, it was the pool.
I am really enjoying these up close shots.

I hope you enjoy them. This beauty above was actually part of some nice landscaping that was in the pool area.

This is a beautiful Maple down my street. I absolutely adore Maple trees and their leaves, perhaps it is because I know the shape so well since it is on the Canadian Flag. I, of course, stare at these leaves as often as possible and today had the fun of taking a nice picture, which of course you are seeing for yourself.

Inside the pool area, there are two gorgeous pergola's. There are vined plants growing up the sides and onto the top. The top one is a look through it to the sky above. It was such a wonderfully cloudy blue sky today. It was still warm but there was no sun beating down today, and also no sun to shine huge photos on anything in a bad way either.

This is from the same pergola as above, but obviously, the focus has been changed from the sky above to the actual green vines that are so delicately wrapping around it.

Thanks for tuning into my post and checking out my photos.

Adorable photos, I really love the softness in the first one - the flowers are so fluffy looking! And the Maple leaves have come out so perfectly clear, it is such a special shape they have and quite beautiful.

I really like how you got the sky and clouds in focus, with the trellis out of focus - makes it quite a special photo to look at, really different I like that one so much.

Looks like you had a wonderful day, thanks for sharing it.

I did indeed have a wonderful day! I am so thrilled you enjoyed these photos. I adored the sky one as well, I am learning to be a bit more creative with some of my shots and I can often spend quite a few moments a day just admiring the sky. Thank you so much for stopping by and your comments, always uplifting.

Staring at leafs? 😂you crak me up.
Well I stare at the moon and the stars. So it makes sense 😅

Yeah beautiful nature is like a free treatment 😉

I like the conspt of wednesday walk but I'm afraid it will end up more like "see what I see" (Saw edition 💀)

Lol oh my, what kind of things do you see that it could end up being like saw haha

well you will see

Love these up close shots isn’t cool how a change of focus point can make such a change to an images feel

Nothing wrong with staring at leaves

Thanks for being a regular Wednesday walker 😎
Tip!

It’s a really easy challenge and I do enjoy where I live so it’s a no brainer. I took way more shots than just these too but I will have to show them a bit throughout different posts

How nice to take a walk with you, even if I am a day late and a dollar short! I have my #WednesdayWalk all ready now. Pfft! Next week! I promise!

I love Maple leave too and you got some real beauties! I love the ornamental grasses. They really add a nice addition to the landscape.

Thank you for taking me along! I love your photography! Glad to see you are keeping the dust off your lens and using it! :)

Tip!

I am indeed! I have some other nice shots too but since I was like already an hour into Thursday I posted these. I feel like I’m getting better so it’s definitely been fun. Thanks for joining me! I do also agree the array of plants they put everywhere is quite a treat.

Oh my gosh I didn't know I could post it today. I got all wrapped up yesterday and didn't post it. This morning I thought about it.

It is easy to recognize that those photographs done in spring you had a chance to capture the moment when the leaves are so gentle, fragile and still in process of growing, they are not small but also not real end-size. You can see on maple leaves, juicy green color the same with vines.

I love early spring because of this sap green when I was a child I thought that in spring someone cleaned the leaves that is why they are so intense color but by the mid and end of summer people were lazy and stopped cleaning dust away, that is why the color is less intense. Is it not funny, what the children think :)

That is so interesting, those thoughts as a child. They certainly are green and delicate, you are right about that for sure. I love watching the changes of the Maples here, even though I live in a warm place too, the Maple always stays true to losing its leaves as if it were in a cold place in fall (although it happens a bit later in the year). Thank you for your comment too, I loved it.

That first shot is really nice though I do like them all. I also like your "watermark" on the photos - very creative

Thank you! My watermark is my signature and I do indeed love it :)
