Me and my Father spend three days in Boston as a special Father-son trip. We arrived the morning of October 1st and had the entire day to explore and see things. This was the first roll of film I used in the city and highlights many of the things we did and saw this day.
The first day was special because there was so much to see and do, and I had never been to Boston before so everything was a new experience (which I'm all about).
Location: Boston; Caffè Nero
About: After checking into the hotel to drop off our bags we immediately went walking looking for some place to grab breakfast. I really liked the atmosphere of the cafe; there was a lot of people passing by, especially business men in suits.
Location: Boston; Old State House
About: The red-brick building here is the Old State House, the opposite side of the building is where the Boston Massacre happened. It's really interesting to see this building from the 1700s standing below these massive skyscrapers all around it.
Location: Boston
About: A massive glass office building. Kind of a cool shot, right?
Location: Boston
About: On the corner of Devonshire and Water, there's plenty of unique buildings to see in Boston! This would be a really cool office to work in.
Location: Boston; The Connector
About: A place to "Dine | Discover | Gather | Connect" "Where Boston Comes Together". A really nice building with a lot of people that seemed high-class. Needless to say I did feel a little bit out of place here, but they did have free mayonnaise which was much appreciated.
Location: Boston; South Station
About: Taken at *squints* 9:14am as we roamed around. This was just a normal Wednesday for all these people going to work or wherever. It's nice to be in the middle of all that knowing for this short span of time you don't have any obligations.
Location: Federal Reserve Bank of Boston
About: This modern building is actually the Federal Reserve Bank, which I didn't realize until some time after taking this photo. It's kind of cool for me to see this branch of the Fed having worked for the Cleveland Fed.
Location: Boston
About: They had this display set up in this public area with all these gold coolers stacked up into a massive pile. They each had something different inside, but what exactly I cannot make out. I wish they had information about what this was.
Location: Boston
About: I gave my dad the camera to take some pictures of me during our trip, unfortunately this was the only one that actually turned out good! (lol sorry no hate though)! I love the look of the city in the background here, and the colors are great too.
Location: Boston; Hood Milk Bottle Plaza
About: I was literally in the Hood.
Location: Boston
About: Located by some hotel and restaurants, this giant American flag was setup in this open-air building. When we turned the corner I was not expecting to see this, but what a cool thing to stand under, wow!
Location: Boston; Milk st
About: I love me some milk, if that's not already apparent, so naturally I had to get a picture of the funny street named milk!
Location: Boston; Quincy Marketplace
About: This is where we spent the most time during our trip, having visited the market every day we were in Boston. It was a big reason why I chose Boston for this trip.
Location: Boston; South Market
About: Right across from Quincy Market is the South Market. This was a cool building to walk through, with some neat vendors inside, but not nearly as exciting as Quincy. This shot also ain't too bad, I rather enjoy the bright sun coming in, even if it hurts the overall quality; it gives off a comfy vibe.
Location: Quincy Market; Berry Twist
About: This food all looks great, even though I'm not big on desserts at all!
Location: Quincy Market
About: I love this image, the lighting and focus on the candy apples is perfect. There was so much good-lookin' food in the market, I wish I could try it all.
Location: Faneuil Hall
About: This building housed many vendors for Boston-themed goods. It's definitely geared more towards tourists (which I'm not big places that have a touristy vibe), but was still cool to walk around and see what they had.
Location: Boston; Chinatown
About: Now we are in Chinatown! It was cool because you're just walking down roads and sidewalks and suddenly you're in Chinatown. We wanted to find a ramen place to eat at, and we did, a place called Waku Waku. I got spicy chicken wings.
Location: Boston; Chinatown
About: A gate that stands at the East entrance into Boston Chinatown. This area wasn't maintained all to well, it felt a bit junky, mainly because of some homeless that were vibing in the area. Still, this was a cool spot to visit and rest our feet.
Location: Boston; Chinatown
About: Tyler st, which runs through Chinatown. This is a cool picture especially with the Chinese street name and the slight lighting of the sun.
Location: Boston; Boston Common
About: We headed back up from Chinatown to the Boston Common Park, a large grass area with walking paths, stands for food and drink, a standalone coffee shop, and other nice things to see. It was sometime in the afternoon, we had literally spent the entire day since 8am walking around the city. As such, we took some time to sit and rest in the park, people watching and planning out the rest of our day. This picture reminds me of how beautiful the weather was.
Location: Boston; Public Garden
About: West of the Common Park is the Public Garden, which is more or less the same but a more dynamic landscape filled with a wider variety of plant life. The public garden was really cool to walk through and see; I could easily spend hours sitting and enjoying the park!
Location: Boston; Public Garden
About: Continuing straight from the previous picture takes you to this bridge that goes over some water. This is a very popular spot for people to take pictures of the park, themselves, or their group. It's kind of cool to see all the different types of people doing their own thing.
Location: Boston; Boston Common
About: Although not the only picture I took of this fountain, it ended up being the only picture that turned out good. Had to be this one... The area around the fountain was always very lively with people, no matter how early or late into the day we walked through here.
Location: Boston; Boston Common
About: As I said earlier, you see a lot of different kinds of people in Boston, and the Common gave you a glimpse into it all, including the homeless! Also, an interesting thing about the Common is there is an entire parking garage under the park, and I mean multiple levels. This amazed me, so naturally I was also amazed to find out they have entire networks of roads and highways underground. Isn't that crazy!
Location: Boston; South Station
About: We peaked inside the South Train Station at *squints* 5:55pm, just because it looked cool. It wasn't anything crazy special, but was neat to see. It was very busy in there.
Our second day in Boston involved two main stops, first was the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the second was the Massachusetts State House. The art museum was one of the reasons why I chose Boston as the place I wanted to go, as I grew an appreciation for art having visited the Cleveland Museum of Fine Arts.
I would 100% say that my favorite part of our trip was the art museum. It's just so big with so much to see and look at. I for sure walked the entire museum twice (at least) and still didn't see everything there was, or had the time to really look at the art and study it, or to read the little sign they have detail the piece.
Location: Boston; The Well Coffee House
About: I got a really good latte here which fueled me as we walked the three miles from our hotel to the Boston Fine Arts Museum. I think I liked the vibe and ambiance of this coffee shop the most.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: After getting your ticket into the museum you follow the hallway around and up these stairs. Art is around you on every side as you climb up, then at the top are hallways in every direction, each going to a different area of the museum.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Muse With Head of Juno, 1st Century BC, Rome (Credited to).
It may not be immediately obvious looking at this picture, but this statue is huge, easily the largest one in the museum. Looking up to it in person is captivating, almost as if she has authority over the smaller statues throughout this gallery.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Torso of Venus, 2nd Century AD, Greece (Credited to).
The form here is good, and besides all her limbs and head being lost, it doesn't look all too bad. I like this one.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Maenads in a Wood, 1879, Gustave Doré.
This image captures a scene from Greek myths (death of Orpheus). I'm not big into Greek mythology, but Orpheus is an interesting character, and stories surrounding him are really interesting. This work was carved out of a single piece of wood! Which is crazy considering it was carved from a single piece of wood with such exact detail.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Room of Gallery 250, European Art.
The entire museum was beautiful, I wish I had more film to capture all of it! This room housed European art, and as you can see from the paintings on the wall they are primarily Christian in their subject. It's interesting how these familiar scenes from scripture is visualized by artists.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Virgin and Child on the Crescent Moon, 1440-1450, Austria (Credited to).
The woman here being that of the woman in Revelation 12. It's a beautiful statue that serves an important reminder of what has been and what will be.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Gallery 218, Tomb Effigy of Alonso de Mera, 1592-1594, Juan de Montejo.
This gallery was really cool. A small room looked like the inside of a cathedral with stained glass and stone bricks. In the center is this kneeling knight in a posture of prayer. The quietness of this space gave it an authentic feeling unlike any other gallery. I'm very happy with this image.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Orpheus and Cerberus, 1845, Thomas Crawford.
A nude Orpheus is seen traveling with the three-headed dog Cerberus (not pictured). The way I took this picture also gives the statue a different meaning. Here you see it upright as if he is looking into the distance, but the real figure has Orpheus leaning forward in motion, one foot in front of the other. Meanings change depending on how things are framed.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Nydia, the Blind Girl of Pompeii, 1856, Randolph Rogers.
Based on a girl from the novel titled The Last Days of Pompeii (1834). The beautiful statue is in heavy contrast to the tragic story of the slave girl in the book.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Venus Anadyomene, 1864, William Wetmore Story.
The white marble fits well with the red-fabric background. Looking close, I feel like this shot could have been focused a bit better, the lighting also is a tad bit high.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Bacchus, 1863, William Wetmore Story.
This came out very well; where as the previous picture of Venus feels too bright and out-of-focus, the composure here is solid. The pose of this statue is both relaxed and firm, which corresponds well to the wine jar in his left hand and the straight staff in his right.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Medea, 1868-1880, William Wetmore Story.
This gallery really was photogenic. The framed paintings in the background hung on a red wall fits well with Medea and the scene this portrays.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Le Domino Rose, ~1895, John Humphreys Johnston.
The painting itself is very pretty, but it's elevated by the surrounding scene, capturing the world and decoration form the late 1800s.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Scale-model for Pennsylvania Railroad War Memorial, 1949-1952, Walker Hancock.
An angel lifts up the body of a dead man. This portrays a powerful scene, especially with the face of the angel looking down as if sorrowful. The dark, gradient background highlights the ascending angel frozen in action.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Hebe and Ganymede, ~1851, Thomas Crawford.
The shepard-boy Ganymede looking up to the cup bearer, Hebe, as she passes the cup to him. The ability Crawford has to create such a scene is amazing.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Cupid Disguised as a Shepherd Boy, ~1836, John Gibson.
The low lighting and shadows give this statue a relaxed vibe, which is given evermore so by his open hand and angled down head. What I find truly amazing is how the marble is sculpted to show the folds of his cloaks and the impression of his chest through it.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Gallery 233, Art of the Americans
Pictured here is a man sitting before a large painting, the statues of Bacchus and Nydia are seen on both sides. These paintings pack in so much detail and life, so I'd imagine that studying them and working to replicate this art would help to improve ones ability. My ability in drawing and painting is far from 'good', but if I were gifted in this way I'd love to be doing what this man does.
Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
About: Gallery 235, Art of America.
Pictured is a girl reading the paintings Storm at Sea (1840) and Ship in Storm (1828) by the painter Robert Salmon. I really like art, looking closely at the painting and thinking about what I'm seeing, but I don't often find myself captivated by any one painting. This girl is seen really taking the time to read into these paintings before moving onto the next.
Location: The First Church of Christ, Scientist
About: This massive and regal building is The First Church of Christ, Scientist in downtown Boston. We went inside but didn't really understand what it was about so left shortly after. The entire building complex is very nice. It's clean with these really expensive buildings all around, plus a reflecting pond!
Location: Boston; Raising Canes
About: My favorite fast food is by far Raising Canes, so you know that when we walked passed this fully gold Canes I just had to go in for a meal. The ambiance in here is crazy. Everything from the floor to the ceiling, the chairs and the tables, the speakers and even the pop machine is gold. It was also packed full of people; there was not a second where there wasn't a line waiting for their food.
Location: Boston Common
About: Taken as we crossed from the Boston Common into the Public Gardens. The green space throughout Boston was really nice, worth walking through and visiting multiple times over.
Location: Boston; Massachusetts State House
About: This turned out really well. The gold dome contrasting with the blue sky with a plane way out in the distance makes for a beautiful composition.
Location: Massachusetts State House
About: Inside the state house was very impressive. Being surrounded by all this really makes you appreciate the work that has been put into our country to be as great as it is (despite clear flaws, America is still an amazing place).
Location: Massachusetts State House; Hall of Flags
About: Each flag here connects the State House to a City or Town within the state of Massachusetts. The glass ceiling provides a natural light not felt throughout any other part of the building.
Location: Massachusetts State House; Grand Assembly Room
About: It's always really cool to be able to walk inside a room like this, knowing how important of a place it is and the type of people who collect in here.
Location: Massachusetts State House
About: The architecture of this building is nothing short of amazing. Government buildings have a way of looking grand and important.
This rather small roll shows the end of our second day and the beginning of our third and last day. I'm not overly happy with these pictures as a whole, and a lot I had to cut out because they didn't come out the best, but there are still some really cool ones (my favorites here include "City Street at Night", "Tatte Bakery & Cafe", and "Bunker Hill Monument Doorway").
Location: Boston
About: A sign directing people walking the Freedom Trail, something we would do the following day (and a big highlight of our trip).
Location: Quincy Marketplace
About: Taken from inside Quincy Marketplace looking out into the coming night. I both love and hate this image, there's a lot going on with the reflection but it gives you a glimpse both at what's outside the marketplace and what the inside looks like.
Location: Boston; Pemberton Square
About: The building on the left is a courthouse, and the curved building on the right houses various businesses and stores, such as Caffè Nero from our first day. The way this building wraps around you in addition to very little people walking through here gave me this unsettling feeling. Was cool.
Location: Leaving Parkman Plaza
About: I don't like night photography much, because my pictures almost always come out terrible (I had to cut a lot out from this gallery), but this shot came out really nice, I'm actually in love with it! From the headlights and the streetlights and that ominous building in the back... it all fits together so well!
Location: Tatte Bakery & Cafe (@ One Boston Place)
About: Of all the cafes we ate at, this one was easily my favorite. Packed full of people, we managed to find a seat where we could enjoy our breakfast. I had a latte with a morning bun, which is a rolled bread covered with sugar. It was so good, this was the #1 thing I ate in Boston.
Location: Tatte Bakery & Cafe (@ One Boston Place)
About: Pictured is a selection of desserts offered for sale. Everything was prepared with such perfection! Tatte was one of those places where you just want to try everything on the menu.
Location: Charlestown; Bunker Hill Monument
About: Tatte was the fuel for us to walk the Freedom Trail. It begins at the Boston Common and ends here, the Bunker Hill Monument. I love the clear blue sky which backgrounds the monument; all three days in Boston were nice weather-wise, but our last day was easily the nicest.
Location: Charlestown; Bunker Hill Monument
About: At the base of the Bunker Hill Monument is this entrance. I love the look of the metal door past the columns, the way the sunlight hits the building here really is what makes this shot great. This is one of my favorite pictures I took in Boston.
Location: Gilmore Bridge
About: From Bunker Hill we set on foot towards MIT. It was a straight path there but all along busy roads. Going over this bridge are the railways, which look rather ugly. Still, a cool sight to see.
Location: Cambridge; Triangle Park
About: All throughout Boston there are plenty of statues along sidewalks, in buildings, and even on the rooftops. This one we saw while resting in a small park across the street. I couldn't find information about this statue, my guess maybe Athena? The helmet and spear give me that impression at least.
Location: Cambridge; Skyline Boston
About: A casual shot of the Boston skyline from across the water in Cambridge.
Location: Cambridge; Skyline Boston
About: A better skyline shot of Boston. It's really cool to see a big city like this from a distance away.
Location: MIT; Killian Court
About: Finally at MIT! Groups of people, likely on tours or exploring like us, are seen pictured. This was the busiest we saw MIT, the rest of the campus felt quiet and barren. I really enjoyed seeing everything here; walking through the building and seeing the dome library was really neat!
Continued from the previous roll of film, this primarily highlights our time in Cambridge, near and in Harvard University. The roll concludes with us back in Boston at the Quincy Marketplace and nearby areas.
I'd say that my favorite images I've taken while in Boston can be found here. Boston overall was such a fun place to visit; hopefully I'll get the chance to go back!
Location: Cambridge; MIT
About: Taken from the Memorial Lobby, the MIT building with the Great Dome, looking out to the large grass lawn before it (facing south). MIT was a cool campus to be on and see, but it felt partially empty. Not many students were around or about (other than inside the Great Dome Library) even though it was a pleasant day outside. Harvard, which we would visit next, felt much more alive and inviting. Even still, the people we did come across were very nice, plus walking and seeing inside campus buildings was really cool, something we couldn't do at Harvard.
Location: Cambridge; Boston Burger Company
About: On our way to Harvard we stopped in a restaurant called Boston Burger Company for lunch. We had spent the day up to now walking the Freedom Trail, then from the end of the trail to MIT, then to Harvard. This is all to say we hadn't eaten much up to this point and were really hungry. My Dad got a Pabst Blue Ribbon as it was the cheapest drink on the menu! And it sure looked refreshing. I would've got a picture of it full but he was quick to take a gulp!
Location: Cambridge; Boston Burger Company
About: This rather close up shot of my lunch is the Boston Burger Company's Turkey Burger, complete with coleslaw and fries (with a side of mayo as one does). This was probably one of the best burgers I've ever had, the only issue is how much burger they give you. The sandwich is complete with two large meat patties that barely hold their weight within the buns. It's messy but amazing. Easily my favorite meal while in Boston!
Location: Cambridge; Boston Burger Company
About: While sitting in the restaurant waiting for our food, people would pass by peering into the glass to check it out. This picture turned out really well with the blurry background and the sun hitting his "got Φ?" (phi) shirt.
Location: Cambridge; Boston Burger Company
About: Our seats inside the restaurant had a good view of the people-traffic happening outside, and there would be some interesting people walking by. This man is exactly what I expected to see going into Boston. The sports cap with a tough look contrasts the ultimately friendly and chatty person the average Boston person is.
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Book Store
About: We went to a couple of book stores while in Boston, but this was by far the greatest. The selection of books was really great, having a blend of newer titles upstairs with the basement housing older used books (what I enjoy). Here I found a physical copy of a book by the ever elusive author Charles Brockden Brown. Although I couldn't find the book Edgar Huntly, I did find this one which was Wieland & Memoirs of Carwin the Biloquist, two books by its author I've been wanting to read. I am so happy to have found this!
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Art Museum
About: Spirit of the Waters, 1914, Daniel Chester French.
A beautiful bronze figure. Shaping metal in this way to form a figure this close to a real person is really impressive.
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Art Museum
About: Male Head, 1319-1324, Guillaume de Nourriche (Attributed to).
The more I look at this the more it transforms (does that make sense?)... I wonder who the man is behind the sculpture, to me the face a biblical figure comes to mind.
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Art Museum
About: Young Athlete in Repose, 2nd Century BC, Greek.
For being over two thousand years old he's held up pretty well. Although probably not based on any one person back then, it's interesting to see how the ideal physical body was thought of back then. And let me tell you one thing, if you saw the butt this guy had you'd be impressed.
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Art Museum
About: Torso of Aphrodite, 100-50 BC, Rome (Credited to).
This picture turned out well with the blurred background of the museum floors. Some of these old statues have been put through a lot of damage and weathering, it'd be interesting to see what they would've looked like the day of their creation. Kinda wish she had a head tho.
Location: Cambridge; Harvard Art Museum
About: One of the exhibits at the Harvard Art Museum was geared towards the study and drawing figures and scenes. They had benches you can sit down at to replicate the drawings on the wall. In this room sat this girl studying the art in the background. Both here and the Boston Art Museum had a lot of art students sitting before works trying to replicate them. Their ability is amazing, truly a gift from God. As you can probably make out, the art she was studying was nude male drawings lol.
I really love how this picture turned out; it's definitely one of the best from this trip!
Location: Cambridge; Steps of Harvard Library
About: All throughout our time in Boston one thing I noticed was a ton of photographers. No matter where we were, what we were doing, there were people taking their own pictures (mostly college girls). And of all the people I ran into who were taking pictures, not one used a film camera... This picture was almost good; it's unfortunate that he's not fully in focus, but the background blur is really pretty.
Location: Cambridge; Steps of Harvard Library
About: A lot of people were in and around Harvard, most of whom seemed to be visiters to campus. It's almost a bit unfortunate, because as a college student the last thing I'd want is a bunch of people walking around my campus while I'm studying or going to class. You could tell some people (like us) were just wandering around campus while others (those pictured) were part of a tour group. They have the grass fenced off for a reason!
Location: Cambridge; Steps of Harvard Library
About: The building pictured here (north of us) is the Memorial Church. Through the trees one can see students on their laptops working. I like how this shot weaves through the trees, providing a snippet of the big brick building behind it.
Location: Cambridge; Steps of Harvard Library
About: On the steps to the library entrance sat a lot of people doing their own thing. It seemed that people generally gravitated to this area of campus to sit, rest, talk, or do whatever. I love how this lens takes pictures, it's great for blurring the background with a sharp subject!
Location: Cambridge; The Harvard Lampoon
About: When we had finished walking around Harvard Campus, we began to walk a bit outside of campus to explore the surrounding area. Many of the buildings here are really old and cool; the streets are walkable with something interesting tucked away on nearly every corner. This building in particular was really interesting; called the "The Harvard Lampoon".
Location: Cambridge; St. Paul's Parish
About: At this point we had walked pretty far out from where our hotel was, so an Uber was needed to get us back into Boston. While waiting for it to come I took this picture of a clock tower part of St. Paul's Parish. This goes with what I've said about previous images, but the buildings and design are all so cool.
Location: Boston; Central Public Library
About: Our Uber took us to the Boston Public Library so we may also check this off our list. The inside is very nice with paintings, statues, and marble all around. A lot of people were inside exploring around too, so for a library it was quite noisy, which is something this picture does not capture at all. Most of the library looked this way, with some parts looking a bit more outdated (and generally quieter too). Also had an odd encounter in this part of the library with a guy who was streaming online talking to his followers. Odd thing to do in a library, but he looked shady so it checks out.
Location: Boston; Central Public Library
About: Couple things to note, first, I did not think this picture would turn out well at all. I rushed the picture, didn't change settings, and my hands were surely not steady, but hey, it came out alright! Second, the hallways of the library are noisy with people exploring and walking around, but the moment you step into this room all that sound vanishes and it becomes dead quiet. I would've loved to sit down in this hall, but we were limited in time and I felt like an outsider amidst all these people actually studying & working on stuff.
Location: Boston; City Hall
About: There are a lot of historic buildings in Boston, so this concrete building sticks out amidst the old brick houses and shops.Nonetheless, it's still a very impressive structure, and the evening sun hitting the left while shadows extend on the right provides a nice dynamic. The image is a little shaky, but turned out nice overall.
Location: Boston; Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park
About: As the evening came to its close, we walked from Quincy Marketplace to the Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park to check it out and take some pictures. The tall clock tower in the background is the Marriott Vacation Club at Custom House.
Location: Boston; Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park
About: Taken by my Father, although not quite centered, turned out nice with the blurred background. The lighting was also oddly good with the dark background and light foreground. Our time in Boston was very well spent; the Father-Son time I spent was really special, and looking back to these three short days produces nothing but fond memories :)
Location: Boston; Quincy Marketplace
About: Heading back to Quincy Marketplace, we grabbed our last Boston dinner, I opted for a plate of Fish and Chips provided by the Fisherman's Net. It wasn't all that good, and was really expensive, but it was a massive plate filled with fish, chips, and coleslaw. Tons of food. There was also a homeless man trying to get food from the employee behind the counter; it seemed like he came around often to them asking for food.
Location: Boston; Quincy Marketplace
About: We enjoyed the rest of the night sitting outside the Marketplace, watching people come and go. We saw a man playing a guitar and singing songs like Wild World and other oldies. There was also this guy with a crowd of people following him who was dressed in a bright yellow outfit loudly playing/singing this song about tacos. Although I didn't enjoy it my Dad sure did. In this picture, a man with his dog sat across from us, enjoying the nice October weather.
Location: Boston; Quincy Marketplace
About: Naturally, as someone who is fond of milk tea, I had to try one from Boston. And I'm happy to report it was great! This was taken as the employee prepared the milk tea for us. I like how this shot turned out, especially with all the equipment in the back. For a relatively simple drink there's a lot of machinery used to do so quickly and consistently.
Location: Boston; Quincy Marketplace
About: A small party of people are seen at the bar for the Boston & Maine Fish Company. Menu signs line the walls with various fish and alcohol options. I absolutely love this picture. The scene I captured here perfectly portrays what Quincy Marketplace felt like: small restaurants where you felt like the only customer despite the crowds of people flowing up and down the hallways.
Location: Downtown Boston
About: Taken on the morning we left Boston. I love traveling to different cities as there's so much to see and do; at the end of the day Boston was probably my favorite big city I've visited. There's so much history, culture, places to see, things to do, and in the three day span we were here we didn't even see half of it. Walking between towering buildings like this is really cool; getting lost between avenues and alleyways leads to new discoveries that fall off any course we had originally planned. Most of our trip was spent without a plan, without an itinerary. I knew I wanted to visit a museum, store, or landmark, but how and when we'd get there was unknown. As such, Boston was an adventure, with many what ifs and what abouts, that ultimately culminated into a series of memories bound together between me and my Father.
