Timeless Boston [explored]
The evening clouds streaking over Boston harborfront give an ethereal quality to the city. It is a timeless city, and I love the melding of historical and modern that can be found everywhere. The cobblestones and old docking chains on the waterfront contrasted against the modern skyline of downtown Boston highlight this mix. Taken around sunset from Fan Pier in the newly redeveloped Seaport District, after downing a beer (Sam Adams natch) and an awesome "Naked Lobster Roll" from the nearby Barking Crab restaurant.
Photographically, this is a merge of two long exposure shots. Was hoping for more dramatic color in the clouds but this front moved in over downtown just a few minutes too early. One can also see the movements of some other photographers from a group on the pier, as well as some light streaks from boats going by. Check out this photo from @nrbelex for a nice LE just after sunset: www.flickr.com/photos/nrbelex/14269376500/. Also a shout out to @Greg DuBois - whose awesome photostream led me to this location in the first place (like this great sunrise pic: www.flickr.com/photos/gregdubois/10319187794/).
