# Wednesday Walk make me smile post  Downtown Milford 

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 :) 

## Note I want to thank @bluemist for sponsoring this challenge starting from this week, due to their support I will be from next week sending out Steem to a selection of people who partake in the Wednesday walk as I will explain in the guidelines below all of the liquid rewards for this post  will be shared with a selection of participants.
 
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**
 
> 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 resteeming 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, plus I will be sending some Steem  to a selection of those who participate, please note this is a change from sending out SBI shares, as I did in the past.

 A couple of years ago they had  a project where they invited photographers to submit photos to be displayed at the train station, about 200 people submitted photos and they selected photographs from 7 people in the end to be displayed, I was very lucky that they selected three of my photos only myself and one other had three selected, so I took it as quite an honor and compliment :) and I do think they do enhance the look of our station

Here is one of my photos
