Winter Drive

So, it's been 5 days of pic of the day (#potd2014)! I've quickly realized this is going to clog up the blog with an absurd number of posts. For the few who might be interested, I'll be uploading the pics to this set on Flickr here. Maybe I'll do some recaps from time to time here on the blog as well.

More to the point, today's pic is some winter driving.

Hypster in Newton

Day 3 of #POTD2014.

Along the Charles River in Newton, an industrial building with a pretty interesting tag. Hypster!

Walden Pond at Sunset

In late October, I took a half day to try to shoot the peak foliage in the area. Unfortunately, the day had been overcast with little sun shining through. As sunset was approaching, I made my way to Walden Pond, hoping for the best. The clouds departed and I had a great 45 minutes of golden hour photography - with dark late afternoon shadows and strong light.

You'll see some swimmers in these pictures - there is a group of older individuals and couples (65+) who routinely swim the cool water here every afternoon!

Walden is such a quiet and relaxing place, it's worth the drive out to Concord.

Autumn Scenes in MA

Two weeks ago, we spent most of a day exploring and looking for some classic New England foliage. It was an overcast day, but Lexington Battle Green (where the Revolutionary War began) had some great color. A morning detour to Wellesley and Natick brought great shots of barns and more rural side-road scenes.
