Wednesday Walk Fort Taber after the snow

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 ;)

Wednesday Walk Fort Taber after the snow

We had a nice snowfall this past week, and a day or so after I did a morning visit to Fort Tabor, it was cooler than I normally like walking in, but I wanted to check out my new camera and got a few shots for this weeks post, I will tell you more about the camera in another post, but lets focus on my walk that morning

I had to be very careful where I walked that morning, I stayed off the paths for the most part as there was patches of black ice everywhere making it very slippery, for the most part I walked on the grassy areas, and completed the walk with a couple of small slides but no falls

Some of the bunkers in the Fort coated with snow

Now I will say these photos are not as good as they could be but thats not the camera fault, I hadn't set it all up properly but this walk was good to remind me of other settings I needed to adjust

There was some nice colors in the sky that morning

This walk must have been two days after the snow as I notice you can see some grass showing, we had got about 6 to 8 inches of snow and it took a couple of days to melt away.

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 @snook, @bozz, @sketch.and.jam, @ellenripley and @emjoe

And @elizacheng will send to @almi


As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Hive from me and this week it is @TBA

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.

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.
b. Your content must be ORIGINAL CONTENT
c. Please include at least 50 Words in your post

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 like the sunrise colours a lot, JJ, and the white on the ground looks very nice and interesting. It also makes the images much brighter - cool 😀

Lovely work you have right here @tattoodjay! As always, I'm drawn to your works. Now I'm itching to go for a trip just to take photos. Hopefully things will be better here in my hometown, badly hit by the recent super typhoon.

I have seen news reports and posts about how devastating the Typhoon was for your area, I hope things can recover and get back to normal for you soon

I can say we're better now but electricity and water haven't been back in all affected areas.

Sorry to hear that, lets hope power and water return to all places soon

Finding the right feel of the camera most definitely has not taken you long, enjoyed the morning sky lighting up through the clouds especially at Fort Rodman and seascapes!

Enjoy the camera and many walks to come.

!BEER

Thanks so much, I was not so happy with these shots, but I know the settings I had forgotten to setup, so hopefully the next time I get out will do better

Thanks, funnily enough I almost didn't share these I just didnt feel they were as good as I had bene getting, maybe I was just having a bad morning when I edited them LOL so thanks so much for the positive feedback

Your photos are good and professional. I don't think anyone could do better than this in given conditions. I salute all those who won in the last week's draw.

I really need to go back down to Fort Dupont to take some pictures of those old bunkers by the water to share. I'm not sure they'll be as nice as these, but definitely by the water.

I would love to see a sunset during a snowy afternoon!
In order to see some actual (not much) snow, I need a 2hour drive from where I live so .. I do envy these images & place.. Just beautiful!

One day you will experience it
It is so different and exhilarating

These are really great pictures and your choice of location is awesomely beautiful.
Kudos

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Good morning... it is afternoon, hehehe!
Beautiful photos!
I come for the blue skies... it is always blue!

Good afternoon
I do love ice blue skies

I love it too, @tattoodjay!!!

Have a great day

Great pictures as always, I especially love those pictures with the golden sunrise. Sounds like you need special shoes to walk on the slippery roads, so if I had to jog there, I would probably slip and fall. Anyways, thank you for sharing and do stay warm. Enjoy the rest of your day and Thursday ahead :}

the last few days shoes with spikes would have bene handy, but if your careful where and when you walk it snot to bad here

Enjoy the rest of your day and week

Wow, those beaches and bunkers in snow are absolutely stunning! I would not have wanted to be a soldier stationed in one of those bunkers in that kind of weather. I really love that sunrise shot with the tide out. Gorgeous!

Hello @tattoodjay , I failed in the time yesterday. Is it too late to make my post today🤔?

NO problem to share it today I only say if possible to post on a Wednesday so today is fine ;)

Snow white and blue sky together, I have that feeling where cold and heat meet now, great pictures, congratulations

Yes indeed, I do find the sunrises and sunsets are often more crisp and colorful during winter
