Wednesday Walk On the harbor walk, shots other than birds ;)

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 ;)

For this week, I am finally feeling over the allergies and a lot better, have been out for a few walks including sunrise walks and a one trail walk, so much in fact I haven't had time to edit the photos I have taken in the last week, so going back a week or two for this post

These shots are from a visit to the Harbor walk and walking along the shore out towards Palmers island, I was there to get shots of birds, and did get a few, but I have shared plenty of bird photo posts so I thought I would share some other shots while watching for birds to fly by.

I wasn't the only one out taking photos that morning I saw this guy taking photos from another part of the hurricane barrier wall

Now the settings for these shots weren't ideal for this style of photography, but I kept the camera on the settings incase a bird fly by, just turned and shot these shots quickly and went back to watching the air for birds flying by
I noticed this pellet that had washed ashore, covered with a bit of seaweed, I wonder where it came from

A nice boat heading out to the ocean, and with the setting I had on the camera also got the seagull flying by overhead

Not the greatest of shots, but something about this one I like the silhouette of a fishing boat as it passed through the glistening water from the still rising sun

Now taking photos of people isn't something I often to, But I guess using a 600mm zoom I don't feel so bad as here is the other photographer I saw that morning again, complete with two cameras

Weekly giveaway of shares

This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @fotostef, @wittyzell, @mariamari142, @darine.darine, @joalvarez, and @txatxy

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.
