The term alludes to the Russian practice of punishing prisoners by sending them to work in the salt mines of Siberia.But it's strange.. I couldn't find any other info except for this little tidbit! I can find the idioms meaning but not the history of it! I'll keep on searching:) Mme. Reed reporting for duty!
The weather in Boston looks so mild. She's a tough gal for reading outside in winter!
Just and awesome photo..the shadows on what I assume is a tent add a sort of structure here. I love this lady's face...professorial I think. I am so glad I found your blog. I grew up in RI and spent as much time in Boston as I did in Providence. These past six years, I've become a Floridian, but my heart will always be in New England. It's such fun to see your photos and know exactly where you are.

Great composition. I suspect it will be a few months before there is much lunch time reading outside in Boston.
Good photograph.
I like the horizontal and vertical lines and where you have placed the reader in the shot.
Very pleasing to the eye all round.
I love the way the shadows behind her echo the curve of her back as she bends toward her book. This is an excellent study in b&w.
A not 'uncommon' sight in the city.
If you're coming through Brattleboro let me know.
I not fond of B&W so, when I see one I like, my compliments are absolutely sincere. This is a fine portrait and very good as is.
Very nice lightened and composed - I always like your b/w urban shots very much. The shadow in the background is great as an eyecatcher.
Soaking up the sun, but it still looks cold. Nice shadows!
