Wednesday Walk at the port

Wednesday Walk at the port

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
Today I will share a walk I took early one morning around the Port here in New Bedford, its one of if not the busiest fishing ports in the country and had many commercial fishing boats inthe poirt whenever i visit there, but for this post I will try and focu on other things I saw at the port for the most part

Starting with the Schooner the Ernestina Morrisey which was built at the James and Tarr Shipyard for the Gloucester fishing fleet at a cost of $16,000 and launched on February 1, 1894, and the port is its home base

NOw the port in general and the schooner are often shots I like to edit in Mono, but I do edit some in color and sharing color shots today

This morning the weather apps had told me it was foggy, and I thought the port wuld be great for foggy shots, but no fog was in sight but I still got a nice walk in and a few good shots include this one looking across at the old Swing Bridge to Fairhaven and the telecommunications tower.

Having built and worke don telecom towers I find they always catch my eyes, it ws a job I really didnt enjoy and am glad I do not have to climb them anymore

The colors in this coffee shop caught my eye that morning

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.

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

I'm not a huge fan of coffee, but that shop looks pretty cool. I can just imagine everyone in there bustling around getting ready for what will probably be another busy morning for them.

Happy #WednesdayWalk! great photos. I like that last shot with the boats. I have done several jobs when I was young that involved heights and climbing. Now I look back and wonder how I ever did that. Looks impossible now
