Wednesday Walk a Walk in downtown New Bedford

# a Walk in downtown New Bedford This post if for Wednesday walk challenge Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;) Today I will share a few shots I took in the Historic district downtown here in New Bedford, with perhaps the excveption of the first shot, some of the iconic sights in the area. I took these recently, I was driving to drop the grandkids off home one day and drove past and saw a couple of these sights, and thought I have walked or driven by these many times and not sure ever taken a photo of two of them so I went out the next morning with that goal in mind. but lets start with the exception, in the early morning, darkness as I crossed over from the port where I had parked, this lamp in a shop window caught my eye, so I crossed over to get a shot of it Made me think of the Movie a Christmas story and the lamp being a Major Prize <center>  ^{**Sony A7iv 28mm F8 8 seconds ISO 100**} ^{**[Click here to view larger](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/tattoodjay/48J8EtRhqpw5fGtZUFQKn1h598ZDoedj3k4ug4srjBjJJKwf8xXVqSDAKZpQC5SP4b.jpg)**} </center> <br> and after that I got distracted and went the longer way than I needed to to get to the spots I wanted to catch, and passed by this fountain beside a little park, I have tried to get shots of it before but generally have not been happy with them.
