Wednesday Walk - Clinton Place
Clinton Place
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
For today's post I will share a short walk I took recently on a street that people on Facebook have suggested I check out, it is called Clinton Place.
Clinton Place in New Bedford, Massachusetts, is a quiet, highly desirable historic six-home cul-de-sac off Clinton Street featuring exquisite Victorian and Shingle-style homes built around 1898.
There are six properties on the street, and all were designed by renowned local architect Nat C. Smith.
They were built in 1898, showcasing classic late-19th-century Victorian and Shingle-style architecture.
Apparently, they all feature grand entry stairways, stained glass/Palladian windows, and multiple classic wood-burning fireplaces, but that's from what I read online; I didn't get to go into any of them.
Let's start with a photo looking down the street; well, I say street but it's actually a place off Clinton Street.
From just this view it looked charming and inviting.

And another property, they actually had a lot of things on he front lawn, but I edited hem out as it took away from the charm of it.

The light wasn't ideal when I visited this street, and in color this one didn't look that good, so I tried it in B&W and am happy with it

And of course, for this one I had to keep it in color I love the design of this one, but that color wouldn't be my first choice to be honest

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
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
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 re-Hiving 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.
I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.
unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Ugh, looks like photos are wonky again in PeakD right now.
Hello, dear friend @tattoodjay.
How wonderful that you walked down this street and came across these beautiful properties; they all have a special charm.
Excellent shots.
It looks like a beautiful little pocket of history. Even from the street, you can appreciate the craftsmanship and character of those homes. It’s a shame you couldn’t go inside, but the exterior alone makes them feel like they’re preserving a piece of the past. Charming photos indeed.
Good day, Mr. @tattoodjay.
What a beautiful place for a walk; I love it when you hike through such lovely places and tell us about their history.
Beautiful photographs.
Definitely looks better in Black and White. Although I'm sure looked better when paint was brand new and "pretty in pink".
What a lovely walk!! I love the cobbled streets, and those houses are a dream!! What a beautiful photo in sepia tones. It’s best when there are no people on the street, what lovely photos. Thank you!
A wonderful walk, informational.
