Out and About - Seaport District, Boston, Massachusetts, USA


I enjoy the interplay of shadow, light, and structure at this exact time of day/season of the old Northern Avenue Bridge (built in 1908, closed 2014). The three converging lines, made up of two steel girders and one shadow, draw me right in, especially in this black and white rendering.



Though this looks like a barge about to crash, it's not, it's the rotating portion of the rusty, former Northern Avenue bridge rotated permanently out of the way to allow vessel passage.



Human tourists were out doing what tourists do on the waterfront promenade......



....and so were the canine variety, too.



The spring migration was full underway in the Seaport neighborhood.



There were hundreds of them feasting on the spring grass.



And other strange creatures, too. Ah, Boston.
