Another day shooting Boston. A cloudy afternoon, and Chris (@chrisrocco) and I decided to go back to South Station to re-do a shot that we were previously dissatisfied with. I had shot it at night, and after posting it twice to instagram, I actually began to hate the image more and more. This time there were clouds, even lighting, and I already knew what I wanted.
We then moved to shoot a train maintenance center on the red line. Chris knew the spot, but it was both our first time actually going there. Chris had a Leica SL, courtesy of the Boston Leica Store, who loaned Chris the camera in exchange for some Boston photographs for their new store. I had never used a Leica before, and the SL was very similar to a Sony A7rII, with an illuminated viewfinder, and highlighting what is in focus. The camera was probably the most solid feeling body that I have ever held, and it really delivered some crisp images.
After shooting one overpass, we moved to another bridge that was slightly more distant from the city. We then went on a nearby parking garage after meeting up with another friend. From there the city began to look small, and it was dark and cold. We decided to go home for a little to regain some energy.
Later that night we went to an overpass that had a small view of Boston. We had been here a few days earlier, but the clouds were not working with us, so we decided to give it another shot. Luckily we had some nice clouds, but again I was freezing, so I only got one shot. In hindsight, I should have used my 50mm or 85mm instead of my 24mm, but the image is interesting, and I had a good time playing with the colors in Lightroom.
