Greenway Fountain & Custom House Tower at Night – Boston
This is the final photo in a series of black & white shots I took of the Boston Financial District skyline as I was wandering around the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway one night last summer. This is such a great location from which to make images: lots of fantastic skyline light, fountains galore, and also [...]
Custom House Tower at Night – Boston
Another in a series of black and white explorations of cityscapes at night, this one taken near one of the fountains on the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway in Boston. Hard to believe that it was not that long ago that this shot would not even have been possible, as there was the double-decker freeway of [...]
Foggy Boston Back Bay Skyline at Dusk
Here’s a shot of the skyline of Boston’s Back Bay area taken from the Longfellow Bridge. It was just starting to really rain out, but the light was very interesting, how the orangeish-pink glow of the city bounce off the low-hanging clouds as the fog descended on the skyscrapers. I don’t know why, but I [...]
Back Harbor Reflections
Earlier in the summer, I took a long bike ride starting in Beverly, Massachusetts, up through Gloucester, around Cape Ann and then back through Essex (where I had a bowl of fabulous clam chowder at one of the roadside clam shacks), and then on to Ipswich, where I met up with Christina and Alex at [...]
Summer’s Day on Cape Cod
OK. I was up before dawn this morning, photographing the sunrise, and it was 10 degrees Fahrenheit. So what did I do when I got home? Started processing photos of Cape Cod from last summer. Makes sense, I suppose. This is one of those photos. Had a lot of fun with this one, deliberately breaking [...]
Boston Skyline in the Blue Hour
This a shot of the Boston skyline taken from one of the best locations for skyline photography in Boston: the Boston Harborwalk near Moakley Courthouse. I just love the changing light during the blue hour, as the sky deepens in its shades of blue and the golden lights of the city begin to appear. For [...]
Reflecting Pool at Dusk
This is another in a series of photos taken in Boston at the Christian Science Plaza. I was pretty lucky this particular evening, as it was raining a bit, which gave me the added benefit of scaring off all the tourists who are normally wandering around the place in the evening AND coating the pavement [...]
The First Church of Christ, Scientist at Night, Boston
This is a panoramic, wide angle shot of Boston’s Christian Science Church at night. I made this photo by stitching together two wide angle shots in Photoshop, blending them together, and then processing as black & white in Adobe Lightroom. Had a lot of trouble initially getting the exposure the way I wanted it across [...]
Approaching Storm
This is a shot I got while wandering around the harbor on Lake Champlain in Burlington, Vermont, when we were on vacation there last week. A storm front was moving in fast, and I was afraid that we were going to get rained on, but as it turns out, the clouds blew over and the [...]
Rowes Wharf and Custom House Tower at Dusk, Boston
This is a shot of the Boston Financial District skyline taken on the Boston Harborwalk near Moakley Courthouse. The clock tower in the center-right of the composition is the Custom House Tower. The tower has been through various iterations, but now houses a Marriott hotel. I love taking photos of the city during the “blue [...]
Boston Financial District Skyline at Night
Here’s a black and white shot of the Boston Financial District skyline under night skies taken from the Boston Harborwalk next to the Moakley Courthouse. It was a blustery evening with a storm front moving in, and I was afraid I would get rained on, but I managed to just get this shot in under [...]
Custom House Tower & Greenway Fountain, Boston
Taken as part of the Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk on July 18th, this is a panoramic view of the Custom House Tower looking across a cool circular fountain located on the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway in the Financial District in Boston. Of course, one of the Big Dig‘s freeway tunnels is right below all of [...]
Boston Skyline at Dusk
Taken on the Boston Harborwalk near Moakley Courthouse. The light was stunning that evening, and I couldn’t take photos fast enough. I felt like I was taking photos while inside a jewel box, and my photo here barely begins to capture that feeling.
TD Banknorth Garden & Zakim Bridge at Night
This is a shot of the sports arena currently known as TD Banknorth Garden (home of the NHL’s Boston Bruins and the NBA’s Boston Celtics) with a bit of the south section of cable stays on the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge. Taken on an evening photostroll through Charlestown and Boston with fellow [...]
Drain Sign & Brick Wall
I just liked the textures and colors of the brick wall and the painted sign. Click here to see those details up close. Taken in low light on an evening photowalk with fellow fabulous Flickr-ites ms2thdr, jimmike, and nolanstern in the old Navy shipyards in Charlestown, MA.
Custom House Tower at Night – Boston
This is the Custom House Tower as seen from across the inner harbor at Piers Park in East Boston. The tower has been through various iterations, but now houses a Marriott hotel. The clock is pretty amazing to see at night, and I’m sorry I couldn’t zoom in any closer than I did, but you [...]
3 Park Benches at Night – Piers Park, Boston
This is one in a series of shots of these awning structures over the park benches in Piers Park, Boston. I liked the sort of retro, yet other-worldly, look they had. Taken on the waterfront in Piers Park in East Boston.
Boston Night Skyline with Bench, Piers Park
This is the Boston Skyline as seen from across the inner harbor at Piers Park in East Boston.
Solitary Man
This is an evening shot taken on the Charles River near the Harvard Bridge and MIT campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. It is a fairly long exposure, and I was lucky the guy on the bench didn’t move a muscle the whole time.
CITGO Sign on a Foggy Night – Fenway Park, Boston
This is a shot of the famous CITGO sign that sits near Fenway Park, the home of Major League Baseball’s Boston Red Sox. The sign has a very interesting history and is considered one of the iconic landmarks of the Boston skyline. That is the Harvard Bridge in the foreground with the red streaks from [...]
Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge at Twilight
This is the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge (aka the “Zakim Bridge”) in Boston as seen from North Point Park in Cambridge, Massachusetts. (Another one taken during a Flickr meetup with the folks from the Boston, Massachusetts, Flickr group. Thanks again to Greg for organizing this!)
Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge at Night
This is the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge (aka the “Zakim Bridge”) in Boston as seen from North Point Park in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This was taken a little bit later than some of the previous shots I took, and I pulled back a bit to capture the reflections on the water.
