Photographing Boston
I finally got out to shoot some photos this morning. Shula came with me and took her own pictures with our older Sony Cybershot. I had been dreaming of the time she could accompany me on one of these outings and not be a) totally bored or b) totally annoying. It was great fun.
Here’s a sample of her work:
We started here and walked north to the Charles River.
On the way, we took a few shots:
Once we crossed the drive, we came to a peaceful pond with lilly pads and ducks:
From the river, we could see Cambridge and a bit of Boston. I didn’t get any decent shots of the city from that vantage point. I think Shula saw that immediately and photographed the clouds, instead.
We took a few more miscellaneous pictures
and headed back to the car.
I took a few shots of the buildings (what’s so appealing about the back ends of buildings? I don’t know, but they are fascinating…)
It was nice to get out and start to work the photographic rust out.

That shot of the pond is great Jay. Tell Shula we would love to see more pictures she takes, of whatever she thinks is interesting. Maybe buildings are interesting to ex-Vancouverites since we rarely saw brick buildings or external fire-escapes…?

I second that! Looks like Shula’s got a great eye, too
And I can’t believe how big she is. Say hey to Kim from us!

Hey, Jay – I got sucked into a meme, so I’m pulling you down with me
