It's amazing to me that you can walk down the same street, five minutes after you first walk down it and find a new photo opp each time. You can imagine how I feel, when I take a trip to a place I've heard about, but have never visited.

It was a pretty long haul to get there, as the commuter rail line that usually brings you to Rockport was down for bridge maintenance. We had to take a shuttle bus half way there to the city of Lynn MA and then get on the actual train to Rockport. A little over an hour to get there and another hour to get back.

I went there with no expectations for myself on what kind of photographs to capture.

As it turns out, that was the absolute best thing for me to do. I actually got two shots that I'm really happy with, but I'll have to post them after I finish up with this Boston series.

There's another trip into Boston coming up and I have one specific shot that I'm interested in taking. I'm also interested in finding a rooftop in Boston to take a shot at dusk, but thus far I haven't found anywhere I can get to legally.

I'll admit that going with friends into Boston is great, but I really wish to make a real connection with other photographers/artists, because I believe that would really inspire me in different ways. 

I hope that everyone is having a great week!
