Walk Five

This year Scott Kelby held his Worldwide Photowalk. But due to Coronavirus, they changed it. Instead of joining a group in selected cities, and wandering around with that group for a couple hours taking photos, now it was a solo event. Anyone could join it (for a small charity donation) and do their own walk, anywhere, at their own pace. But all on the same day. It actually opens it up to a lot more people, though you do miss out on the group aspect of it.

I entered it, and wandered around several location to snap photos. Most of the pics just end up as random snapshots, but a few can always be considered a bit better. I narrowed it down to three contenders for this year. Plus a couple extras.


This shot is under a large river bridge, with concrete supports. Depending on where you were, there was quite a bit of graffiti. This wasn't one of my three favorites. But its very close to the first of them...

This was one of the three. And its actually in the first photo. When you continue on towards the river, you come to this point. Where the supports have this neat repeating affect across the river. But on to the next almost...

A straight up shot standing under a large high voltage power line. That's a lot of metal framework. High powered, but still not the ultimate selection. That goes to the next photo...
Here's my pic for the Photowalk entry. A nice perspective shot on a glass walled room on the side of a local building. Not exactly perfect in proportions. But overall for the day I felt it was probably my most interesting shot. 

Have to see if I win any prizes in the competition. I seriously doubt it.

Closing off with a late in the day sunset panorama. So long to the day of the Photowalk!

Post-walk awards update - All the winners were picked. Grand Prize? Nope. Runner Up (10)? Nope. Honorable Mention (15)? Nope. But, I got enough likes from participants to be a bit over 93% in the list of most liked of all the images entered (about 615 total entries). I call that a success!
