Today is a new day! It is time to get away from the computer, put on those walking shoes, get out, get fit and be creative! How is walking a creative activity? Well, pick up your camera, take it with you and start clicking away! You will be amazed by all the interesting and wonderful things you will discover, on your ordinary walk, around your once familiar neighborhood.

Creatively Fit is a fitness/photography blog designed to motivate blogger/photographers to get in shape. Each day, participants from across the globe are encouraged to walk, click, and connect with others who are grabbing their walking shoes and their cameras in an effort to stay creative and fit.

The task is simple. Leave a comment on a post, stating that you would like to join, and include your email address. You will receive an invitation to join the team. The assignment:

1. Walk 30-60 minutes each day (3-5 days per week). Work within your fitness level. Set a time limit that you are comfortable with (10, 15, 20 minutes). It's all about having fun and getting moving. Creativity and Fitness are bonuses!!
2. Click - Take photos of your journey.
Everything and anything goes, but we like creativity.
3. Connect - Post your name, state or country, time of walk, and 4 or 5 photos to the Creatively Fit blog.

Cindy - Florida 10:45-12:00


Sorry posting so late. Today was non stop.

Every Monday, before noon, admission is free at the local Gardens. We only go on Mondays because it's free:). I figured, since this was the last week of summer break, we would pay the garden a visit and I would try to get in my creatively fit walk. I have to say, my actual cardio workout only lasted for about30 minutes. I tried to only take pictures during my walk, just walk and click. This is such a beautiful place! When the kids go back to school I might make this my regular spot for my Monday morning walks. (Except, starting October only the first Monday of each month will be free)
The lily pad photos remind me of a Monet painting.


















The butterfly garden was in full bloom
and there were butterflies everywhere.












It was very hot but I did my best to keep moving.
I hope everyone had a great day!

Great shots! You just keep getting better and better. I didn't get to walk today, but not for lack of trying...I may post about it later. I have a picture anyway...

Your lily pad shot reminds me of a shot I took yesterday of a leaf floating on the river. I love the elongated version of it in the collage, but I would love to see the original as well.

Oh wow, what a great place! I wish I could come visit and really walk with you! ;) We need a Creatively Fit exchange program, ha ha!

Julie,
Thanks. Yes, at some point, we should all meet somewhere for a Creatively Fit convention!! Wouldn't that be fun!?

Beautiful photographs I especially like the lily pads and the bamboo. I like the idea of a Creatively Fit convention. I hear there are great places to walk in Paris!
