Monochrome Monday

You can view a similar color picture of this scene I took last year. Other B&W pictures can be found at Aileni's home for Monochrome Maniacs.

Summer boating on the Charles

Taken a couple of days ago. This is how almost all of June looked in Boston - gray and cloudy with intermittent periods of rain. July started out with heavy rain and fog, but it can't last forever, can it?

Reading on the Charles

Picture I took last month on the Charles River Esplanade when the trees were first starting to bud.

School vacation

I spotted these young girls with the million dollar smiles sitting on the Esplanade yesterday. Actually, I heard them giggling and enjoying themselves before seeing them and couldn't resist asking if I could take their picture. They happily posed for me with their balloons and told me they were from Wellesley and have been on school vacation this week. Don't you wish you looked as good in a balloon hat?

Hatch Shell

Hatch Shell on the Charles River Esplanade. This is the site of the Boston Pops concert on July 4th that draws more than a quarter million people.
