Wednesday Walk Peter Detmold Park

Wednesday Walk - Peter Detmold Park

#wednesdaywalk challenge, is a weekly challenge I started before I do my post for this week here are the guidelines for the challenge;

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.

Try and get a few shots not just one

You can look for anything in generally or decide on one subject you want to get shots of.

Try to limit yourself to a set distance or time from the starting location, say 5 Blocks, 5 Minutes walk or whatever and see what you can find in that short distance

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 it this week please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

For my Entry for the challenge for this week I will take you on a little walk through Peter Detmold Park in NY

This one of the entrances to the park at the bottom end of 49th Street

It's a lovely green pathway at this time of year with all the green on the trees and bushes , you can almost forget the busy FDR highway off to the right

At times this park can be very busy, at other times like when I visited it can be very quiet, the only people in the park the time I visited for these shots were these two snoozing on the park benches.

This is a shot from a walkway looking down on the park I loved all the long shadows criss crossing all over the park, as you can see its quite a good sized park

This is the elevated walkway where I took the previous shot of the park., down to the right is a little dog park which II completely forgot to get shots of, but will on another visit there, at at the end of the walkway behind me there are some nice views across the East river which I will share in another post.

This is the other way to enter or leave the park, up these stairs to 51 Street, and this is the way I left the park on this walk

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

What a lovely park @tattoodjay! I love the colors I see. Great idea for a challenge too.

If I took a walk right now it would be in my neighborhood, and I fear I would look kinda suspicious taking pictures of my neighbor's flowers and stuff lol.

Thanks
And I have done that in our neighborhood but not often for the same reason LOL

But for this challenge the walkcan be any day, just f possible do the post on a Wednesday :)

Nice walk and visit to a park one normally would not know about. :-)

It is an out of the way Park, many do not know it is there I am sure

This park is really beautiful and so relaxing! And the photos are top! Congrats, my dear Jay!

Thnaks my friend :)

I am glad you shared it here so some others may see your beautiful post ;)

I resteemed yours ...I'd love to see everyone doing this challenge!

THanks Kindly i would love to see more walks from all around the world :)

A beautiful place, Jay. I wonder if I haven't seen people running along the first path in a movie or two ... maybe STC. Here is my contribution for Walk Wednesday:)https://steemit.com/walkwednesday/@prydefoltz/walk-wednesday-vancouver-s-english-bay-tattoodjay

I would not be surprised at all if it has been used in a few movies or shows

Off to check out your post

What a beautiful stroll! I think my favorite shadowy walkway - the trees look like greeters, all lined up to make you feel welcome!

Here's mine for today - I decided to do a followup from last month. Thanks again for this challenge!
