Wednesday Walk Fort Taber Park

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)

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

Add a bit of a write up about where you walked

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

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, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .

Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.

#Fort Taber Park

now this park on maps shows as Fort Taber Park but a lot of the locals call it Fort Rodman Park, but not sure why I said that as this post is not about the fort that is there, which I have featured in other posts, but more on the walk ways there.
Now I have shared shots of the pier before but still including it in this post, as where I park the car is quite near the pier and I almost always include walking out on the pier as part of my walk there

but the majority of the walk in on these walkways around the outside with paths cuttign through the park

ITs such a refreshing area to walk, I have been there during the day a couple of times, but I do prefer it early morning as very few people are there, when these shots and this walk took place

I always find it kind of odd when there is a fire hydrant in the middle of an open area park like this

As I said there is a walkway that goes around the outer edge of the park by the water, but there are some pathways heading in by the fort

The wide angle of this shot kind of distorts the real view here but i like how this one came out, catching one of only three other people I saw that morning a runner.
