Wednesday Walk Before and after

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, plus I will be sending some Hive to a selection of those who participate.

This weeks walk is a bit different as strictly speaking its not a walk, but a lot of steps I have got recently have been up and down in the house to the basement doing some work, as well as working in the back yard which is coming together also but for this post I will focus on our basement, and this is a good part of why I have not been as active here on Hive of recent as we have been so busy

Starting with a shot I took in the basement when we did the first walk through the place, as you can see it was in need of some work if we wanted to use it

The first area we did was a room we walled in with Sheetrock, which Lulu my wife has setup as a studio which you can see in this next shot

Not sure it shows that well in the photos but we scrubbed and cleaned the walls and floors and have painted them all, this next shot shows our little down in the basement Pantry

This is my Little corner of the basement which I have setup as a little indoor photo area, with he table and lights, I just set up the table and lights yesterday, but need to get a power strip to finish it off, I can see me using this area over the wet and snowy months when I may not get out as much for walks

And this is the entrance to my Wifes Studio/Pantry room

and another shot of my little photo table/area, I didn't want grey walls for this spot so as you can see I went with a nice green, Now today if we have a chance I will pick up a power strip and it will all be ready to go,
