Perfect capture of the new and the old (have to admit, the old has a lot more personality than the new)! Gorgeous blue skies and superb reflections for the day! Enjoy your weekend!
I was in Boston in November and I too was able to catch this reflection, but not nearly as brilliantly as you have. I also lost all but a handful of my Boston pics to a corrupted file. GRRR. Will have to try again (: This is a fabulous shot-such a juxtuposition of buildings.
Nice work on the composition ! I love the ancient building reflection on one side that contrast so much with the second one, much more modern... Great sharing here !
I lived in Boston for years and recognized this right away. Nice reflection. Of course, the Richardsonian Trinity Church is superb, but in its way I. M. Pei's Hancock Tower is also a gem. Admittedly, a very big gem.
