Wednesday Walk in Mono

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.

This weeks walk post is in Mono

Last week we had a Warm spell, real feel temps getting into mid to high 90s a couple of days and as Murphys Law would have it thats when our Air Conditioning decided to play up, and as crazy as it sounds one of those days I went out for a walk to cool down with some breeze, and headed to one of the piers downtown here in New Bedford, with the Sea breeze of the water is was fairly nice out.

Now I say a walk around the pier but starting with a shot looking along a train track by the pier

Walking along I came across this statue on the pier which is a fisherman's tribute Monument

Next up I have these tails mounted on the dock, which I liked in Mono and this and the train track shot are what inspired me to do a mono walk post

and how can one walk the piers and not get a shot of the Ropes and a Bollard ( well I think thats what they are called, the thingy the ropes are tied to when a bost is docked at a pier)
