Hawks

I was eating lunch outside today on my patio.  I saw 2 hawks flying about.

Color or Black & White?

Which do you like best?

Light Box

Since winter is coming, and outside photography will be limited to the warmer days, I want to build a Light Box.  That way I can take close up pictures of smaller objects with good lighting.

If any readers have any ideas on building one, please let me know.

I was at the Mall

BostonTrip

After dinner in Harvard Square, we returned to Boston, and rode the Esplanade to the Massachusetts General Hospital area and back to the Parking lot.  We then decided to go to the North End and bought some Pastries.  We left Boston after 10 pm having glided for a total of 7 hours and almost depleted the batteries on the Segways.

Boston Trip

After we left the Boston Public Gardens we glided up Newbury Street which was crowded.  We moved to Commonwealth Avenue, to Massachusetts Avenue.  Crossed the Harvard Bridge to the MIT area where we st0pped for coffee/hot chocolate.

We then proceeded to Harvard Square, did some sightseeing and had dinner in a mediocre outside restaurant.

Boston Tip

We rode the 4 Segways down the 7 floors of the parking garage, and rode through Faneuil Hall Marketplace.  Al usual we took in the sights, spoke with people asking about Segways.

We proceeded to City Hall Plaza, Downtown Crossing and to the Boston Common.  There were a lot of police there, and an anti-war gathering. 

We crossed Charles Street to the Boston Public Gardens and rode around the duck pond.  On the backside we bumped into another group of 5 Segways.  This is Steve on the right (my friend) talking to the group leader of the other group.  He was hosting a group ride thru Boston for some people from Ohio and California.

Boston Tip

Yesterday, Steve, Heather, Karl and myself drove to Boston and parked at Faneuil Hall Marketplace.  We took out the Segways, and while everybody was getting ready I took these pics from the top floor of the parking garage.
