It’s been a while since I’ve taken the Red Line train and even longer since I’ve taking it to the Cambridge side. 

We had a nice stretch of mild weather. The next few days are back to winter temps.

The Arthur Fiedler Memorial is pretty cool for a giant head (as apposed to the scary giant baby head)!  “Local artist Ralph Helmick created this gigantic head from…

I think there was only one other person walking the Charles River the morning I was out taking photos. Everyone else was jogging. And I mean everyone! I…

A fight is brewing over Boston’s iconic Citgo sign. This seems to be the headline every year or so. I guess we’ll wait and see what happens this time. 

This weekend would have been a perfect time to walk around Boston in the Winter. We had up to 70 degree temperatures on Friday and Saturday was in…

Pretty morning light on the Charles River makes for some nice reflections.

We are going to have a few warm (near or above 60) days ahead. Hopefully, I can get in some walks with the camera.

Yesterday felt like Spring with the weather in the 50s. Everyone was out and about in Plymouth. It also made for a pretty sunset of purples and blues.

I didn’t prepare a picture for today so we have another photo from the engagement shoot. I planned on processing some of the photos in black and white…

The mural, Spaces of Hope, can be found across from South Station along the Rose Kennedy Greenway. “Mehdi Ghadyanloo, 35, worked as a farmer in Kiraj before moving to…

This shot was taken back on January 1st. I have never heard of the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary but it looks like they do some pretty good stuff: “Our…

Not sure I understand the “Dress like Twitter” but the artwork is really cool. This is located in Plymouth by Burial Hill. the plaguetheartist.com website says it is…

I mentioned in yesterday’s post that I did an engagement photo shoot on Monday night. This was a first for me. I always find it a bit nerve…

I did an engagement photo shoot during last night’s sunset. We did get some pretty golden light during the peak of the sunset and then these pretty blues/purples…

Typically, i take pictures of these statues, located in front of the Boston Public Library, from the front. Today I decided to look for a different angle and…

I don’t know how fishermen can be out in an open boat on the ocean in winter. I can barely handle taking a few photos.  In the background…

I didn’t walk very far out in the jetty as it was cold with the wind off the ocean. It will be nice in a few months to…

Brewster Gardens still has lights decorating one of the trees. 

Public Art Boston: Ad Astra, “To the Stars,” shows us two boys releasing a dove. The younger, looking up at the bird that he holds over his head,…

“The bridge crossing the lagoon, designed by William G. Preston, opened in 1867. It was the world’s shortest functioning suspension bridge before its conversion to a girder bridge…

I did not know that there was a Harriet Tubman statue in Boston, until last Thursday, when I saw it pictured on something online. It is only about…

I went to a workshop yesterday, An Exploration in Self Discovery Through Photography and other Expressive Arts. The description for the workshop stated, “We all have the means…

Good spot to sit (or stand) and take in the beauty of the surroundings.

On Monday, I wanted to go to The Market at Pinehills (only place I can find the black tea I like) so I decided to head out before…

I didn’t have a photo prepared this morning, which meant a good excuse to walk through the Public Garden. A little later to work but well worth the…

I thought I’d go back and forth on the blog between winter storm photos and the early morning New Years Day photos. Sort of like how the weather…

The best way to show that it’s snowing is to have a dark background so the white snow is visible and not lost in the backdrop. These black…

I just love the early morning light on the water. I suppose I should reflect on the past year but I’m sitting on the bus, it’s five degrees…

Someone left these roses at Stephen’s Field on New Year’s Day. I’m not sure if it’s a farewell to 2016 or a welcome to 2017 or maybe a…

Pretty morning light on the beach makes this shell glow and look a little like a taco.

Okay, it’s not a bonsai tree but it looked like one to me. 

When the sun did come out on New Years Day it provided a beautiful warm glow to the landscape. This seashell popped in this sea of rocks.

While it was cloudy yesterday morning and it took awhile to see the sun above the clouds it still made for pretty light on the water (what little…

I probably waited a little too long but finally threw away the pumpkin.

Not much to say. Been on vacation this week. A pretty quiet vacation. Been to the movies twice and looking forward to a lazy day today.
