Wednesday Walk by the pond
As I prepare this post I have not been out for any photowalks over the last week as my shoulder although is improving still is painful to move to far in certain poitions, the prednisone sure has helped not sure if it will get worse when I finish the 10 days of them time will tell.
BUt I am trying to be sensible and do as little that irritates my shoulder so not gettign out for photowalks, mind you the weather hasnt been ideal for them, so thats easy.
Also spendign less time on the computer as the position I sit and use the mouse seems to bother my shoulder, so this week I will not be commenting on allthe Wednesday walk posts sorry
But this was the last walk I took, I ended up gettign a nice walk as it was a comfortable and pleasant day, but after about 15 minutes i packed the camera away and dropped it intot he car and just walked as my shoulder was not enjoying the whole taking photos thing.
That said I have bene good with gettign my steps in each morning walking back and forth in our sunrom, gettign over 10K steps in every day, and thta and with trying to eat healthier I have lost the weight i put on in early winter, not that I had put on much, I am done to 178lbs, just 3 off what they say my idela weight is, and 2 lbs higher than when I got out of hospital last year, would be cool to get down to my ideal weight but not stressing or over doing it to get there just trying to keep my steps in and stay healthy

I realised i was in a spot i have noticed a person feeding the birds and I think the swans were expecting foods, they were watchign me closely, I moved along, I didnt want them to get hornery when they realised i had no food for them

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.
