Wednesday walk challenge Hunters Point Park and Steem Basic Income Give away

I
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

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

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

Following me and resteeming the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion, but you may have a better chance of receiving a Steem Basic Income Share if you do.

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

I will try and visit, resteem and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk, plus I will be sending @steembasicincomeshares to a selection of those who participate.

And if you are looking for another fun challenge, check out the Make Me Smilehosted by @elizacheng, coming soon we will be working to collaborate on occasionally on these challenges,
The third Wednesday of the month out two challenges will collaborate so if you combine the two into one post you have double the fun

This weeks walk in Hunters Point Park South

When I was taking some shots looking across at Long Island City from Manhattan over the East River including the pano I shared in this post, I noticed a park and a couple of structures I had not seen before, so one morning I headed over there to check it out and that's the walk I will share in this post.

I took the Subway from Grand Central and went one stop on the 7 train and then walked to the Park and this is the first shot I took in the park, looking back along the riverside you can see the 59th Street bridge and the gantry at Gantry Plaza park which I have shared before in posts

And this is looking in the other direction into the park, its a real nice area, that I had not visited before I think it may be fairly new, and you can see one of the structures I saw across the water in this shot.

And this next shot is looking back from in front of the structure, like so many of the parks in New York City there are plenty of benches if you want to sit and relax and enjoy the day

Steem Basic Income give away

I mentioned in the guidelines that from this week I will be sponsoring a few who join the #wednesdaywalk challenge with shares on Steem Basic Income

What is Steem Basic Income you may ask well here is how they explain it

Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content. so I have decided to send some Steem Basic Income shares to 5 people selected through a random draw so on the weekend all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk. to @bricbric, @adalger, @thebigsweed, @willowisp, @mantishands, all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday Walk .
And a special bonus this week @elizacheng will send one SBI share to @bashadow,

I would love to be able to give everyone who joins a Steem Basic Income share, but I don't make enough steem each week to do so, but I will try and share them around fairly between those that join the challenge

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