Wednesday Walk - a busy day but still managed to fit in a walk by the river
Its been a very busy day here - I had to stay on extra at work, then had jobs to do at home - but I'm glad to say that Wednesday Walk still give me the inspiration to get out even if it wasnt for a very long walk.
I went for a walk along a river near where I live. The bridge above is actually an old railway line that runs over the river.
Above is a picture taken on the bridge. Its been turned into a pedestrian and cycle path now which is quite handy as it cuts out a lot of busy roads in this area.
Thats a view of the river I went to walk along from the top of the bridge.
And this is the view over the other side of the bridge. Its really odd how they have this wire fence on one side of the bridge, but not the other side ?! So its not ok to jump of this side, but fine to jump of the other side - nice !
I took the steps down to the river. You can see the extra planking at the side which is to allow cyclists to get their bikes up and down the steps easier - nice idea !
For some reason the majority of the pics I took tonight were coming out blurry. I think I need to clean the lens. But this foot bridge came out ok (just).
And the above pic is not quite in focus. Its actually a bronze statue of a man. There are quite a few of them along the river route spaced out over 3 or 4 miles, all part of an art installation. When you first see this one from a distance it can make you think there is a real naked man out in the water !
Anyway, that was my Wednesday walk for the week - I'm glad I managed to find some time to get out and grab some steps.
All the best from Scotland !
that bridge looks impressive from underneath not so much from the top
that is weird fenced off on one side and not onthe other
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)
Many thanks - its exactly as you say - the bridge aint so impressive up on top, apart from the views, which dont really come out in the pics !
Nice walk. It's good to get out in the nature.
Aye - I'm really glad I made the effort to get out
Wow, the bronze statue is amazing.,. Standing there. I see you can confuse it with a real person hahaha 🤣
Beautiful walk @hoosie 😎 so much to see.
Great captures! Have a wonderful Thursday 👋🏻☀️
The statue is a little odd, especially when you see it the first time !
Yes… most will think it is real from afar hahaha 🤣
Maybe iam the only one, that find this bronze statue al little scary?
