A Walk through Peter Detmold Park

I was surprised again by the weather today, in a nice way, the forecast was for rain today but the sun came out and it was a nice day, had a busy day int he office and didn’t have time for a walk before work, but I went for a stroll before and after grabbing a quick lunch and managed to get over my personal goal on 7.5K steps, infact with some steps running around after getting off the train I got well over my goal, and now the weekend is here, Have a good one

And Starting with a camera photo that is somewhat related to the other shots I took today with my Phone and I will admit this is a bit of a stretch but I was running short of time as I finished this post of a few minutes ago :)
I liked how this lamp stood out against the red background when I took this shot

Todays shots while getting in some steps

For the before lunch walk or more of a roundabout way to the deli where I have lunch walk I walked through Peter Detmold Park beside the FDR highway and the East River.

Its a nice little park and only about 6 blocks from my current office building, here is the view as I entered one end of the park.

Walking along that pathway I past this street light and tree covered with vines and snapped a shot and this lamp is how I very loosely tie in the first shot I shared in this post :)

This is at the other end of the park looking back as you can see its not huge but still a good size.

Behind me in the last shot is a dog run, which I have twice gone to get shots of the dog and got told by the owners not to so I don't try it anymore, not sure what is so confidential about th dogs in this park, but I just skip taking shots to avoid any aggravation.

Also behind me was a raised walkway that passes over the FDR Highway and this next shot i am up on that walkway.

And this next shot is at the end of that walkway Looking along the FDR highway, whenever I see the traffic backed up like this it confirms why I am happy enough coming into the city on the train rather than driving in.

And here are the stairs I walked up to leave the Park

Ohh yeah from the train around Fairfield in CT each day I see the cars crawling along the highway and am more than happy to be sitting on the train

I am a country boy at heart and couldn't live in the city but it is cool to explore

Cheers and !BEER

Car jacking is very bad down by Seattle, so they came up with a very strong locking metal bar that adjusts to every steering wheel.
It's coated so it wont damage you steering wheel, but you can't steer the car.
so unless they wanted to strip your car, they will go to an easier one!

Sadly that is so true, in my travels I have seen many rough places after wars and such, I must admit when I came here i never expected to see all the homeless and hardship that I see, and rough areas one has to be careful not to pass through, or that I have walked through not knowing lOL

Hehehe... that last shot... you took it from the middle of 1st Ave... then I suppose you had to run back to the safety of the sidewalk?! Each block in NY is the equivalent of three to five blocks in suburban neighborhoods. That’s a lot of walking for everyone! I like the shot taken from the walkway over the FDR highway! I want to learn taking photos like that. Be careful when you walk through that little park. The walkway is buckling up because the tree roots are pushing up the concrete slab underneath the brick tiles. People might trip!

tattoodjay (73) · 5 years ago

Ohh yes I have seen people trip walking where roots are bending up the pavement, I am generally observant and notice it so haven't tripped to much LOL I was crossing 1st heading up top second and stopped midway for that shot, the blocks here dont seem that long to me I guess because i have been here so long, on some of my Walks I walk 60 to 100 Blocks On a good day :)
Except for the first photo all were taken with my cell phone and I only did the auto edit with them :)

I've mentioned this to you before (I think - maybe just in my head!), but I'll say it again— I am most definitely jealous of the places/area you're able to walk and get your steps in every day! I'm in a fairly rural area, so it's just privately owned (and uninteresting) woods and farms within walking distance. 😄

Great iphoneography shots!

You can see the autumn colours arriving, absolutely crazy people won't allow you to photograph their dogs, wonderful weird world we live in...

Yes, it is. I set up my phone today with a new SIM card to use in the UK. They recommended setting it up before you travel. Great idea! It's all initialized and working. All I have to to when 'Im on the plane is switch out my US SIM card for the European one and I'm all set to go!

Great photos! Really interesting architecture, and I like the lamps too.

I can't stand traffic either. I could find a "better" job, but the one I have right now let's me work from home, which has just so many advantages, one of which is not having to contend with traffic. I fully support your idea of taking the train. That would be my preferred course, too.

I find the train relaxing i can watch videos, I do work emails and catch up on Steemit so its useful time, Ohh and yes in the morning I also have a snooze LOL

But that said I am looking forward to when I finish working and do not need to catch the train
