Mystic Sunrise
I had a Lexus LS400 to pick up around 10 am last Monday, so I took advantage of being in Boston and went out early on the sunny day to photograph some transit. Here a morning commuter bound for Gloucester is seen rising up the dramatic graded bridge over the Mystic River on their way for Chelsea station north of here. This spot used to be lined with factories and the river ran yellow from chemicals, leaving those who dared climb over the fences and swim in it with chemical burns and tinted skin. Nowadays, it's clean and nice to walk around, although I would have enjoyed seeing the industrial misery as well.
