a Nice walk in Buttonwood 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 :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
I had another post all Prepared for today but the other day I was feeling the best I have for a while and it was a nice sunny day so I got out for a walk in Buttonwood Park
One thing I do not do often when put taking photos is take photos of people, perhaps in part because i often went out walking early morning when not many people were out and about, and in a bigger part I am generally not comfortable taking photos of people.
But on this walk I decided to try and get some shots of people and even got enough for a post so here we go
When I first parked at the park I noticed this guy laying down on the grass, I didn't get a photo of him at that stage, but he was still there when I got back to the car an hour later and got this shot of him

Seeing this guy skateboarding down the road in the park, I snapped a quick shot and that inspired me to try and get more shots of people so the rest of the photos are in the order I took them on the walk

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
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
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.
