Boston Back Bay at Night

A group of us from my camera club explored Boston at night looking for interesting photography subjects, and we found many! The night was beautiful, a little fog, little wind, not too cold and lots to look at. A great bunch of photographers who had been shooting together for years and a few new members, we all had a great time and ended the evening at PF Chang's for drinks and a bite to eat. Got home at midnight after a very satisfying adventure with good friends!! 

Here is some of what I saw....

Christian Science Center Plaza before the blue hour.

Shooting with Friends on the Waterfront in Plymouth

We had a meetup of my camera club last night at the Office Bistro in Plymouth, and spent an hour or so making photos in the rain out front on the waterfront. Lots of great reflections, rain coming down steadily, darkness at 5pm. The car lights, street lights and other shiny surfaces made for some great images, add in an umbrella or 2 and you have a group of people having fun with their cameras capturing what caught our eye. I love the challenge of night photography!

We headed inside for some food and drink in a very comfortable bar, I enjoyed the evening very much with my photo peeps!

This was taken with my Canon 6D through the windshield of my car when I parked.

Steven being a good sport and model. I processed this with a texture in Photoshop.

Car splashing water, me panning with a slow shutter speed.

Another umbrella shot.

 Stepping outside for a cigarette.

Mark and Sean with rain, dark and opportunities!

 Ken cosy inside checking out the menu.

 Not sure how this bokeh hovered above the plate, a happy accident.

On the way home I shot this through my windshield as I slowed down at a traffic light, lucky shot.
