Wednesday walk challenge Riverside Park 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.
Actifit
A good App that works well in conjunction with the Wednesday Walk or any day walk is @actifit, which rewards you with Actifit Tokens and Steemit Upvotes, if you use the app to track your steps and do a post of your actifit total each day.
If you do a lot of activity I do recommend you check it out
Make me Smile Collaboration
As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the Make Me Smile hosted by @elizacheng, Starting now with this post, on the third Wednesday of the month out two challenges will collaborate so if you combine the two into one post you have double the fun

This Weeks Walk Post in Riverside Park
Riverside Park which runs from 129th Street to 72nd Street, on the West Side of Manhattan is a beautiful area very popular with people walking, running and cycling or at least it was on the morning I walked there.
Now I am starting with one of the last shots I took on the walk, just because I really loved the way the light was shining down through the trees into a light misty spot which created quite a magical feel, which this shot does not really capture the feeling that well but I had to share it first

And now the first shot I took on entering the park, a nice small pathway heading into the trees

And just in the park I came across this path into one part of the wooded area, I love natural pathays like these and strolled through it and was so enjoying it I forgot to take more photos in this area

And now I am out on one of the wider Pathways running along the West Side of the Park, I had to get a shot with the reflectons inthe big puddle fromt he rains earlier that morning

Along this walkway like in many of the parks in NYC there were plenty of benches if you felt the need to sit and rest for a while

Now I said earlier this park was quite popular with people walking, running and cycling and I realize you may think I was making that up as all the previous shots had no people in them, I generally try and get shots without people and admittedly when I started walking in the park there were not too many people, but this last shot shows there were actually others in the park when I was there

That's all folks
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 send some Steem Basic Income shares to 5 people selected through a random draw so on the weekend all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk. @bozz, @lordvdr, @qwerrie, @joelai , @farm-mom, all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk . And a special bonus this week @elizacheng will send one SBI share to @starjewel,
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.
