Posted January 3, 200619 yr Only a few from the past several days. On a foggy evening, the Prudential Center gets lost in the clouds. A little earlier, I took a few pictures around Harvard Square in Cambridge. The accursed camera shake strikes! And the finale panoramas! The first at Harvard Square. Click on it for the full size. Skyline in the fog. Again, click on it. Attempted a couple of days later, for a non-fog version.
January 3, 200619 yr Wow...beautiful pano's! I prefer the foggy skyline, actually, but they're both gorgeous. Where were they taken from?
January 3, 200619 yr The skyline pictures are from just across the Charles River along Memorial Drive in Cambridge, in front of MIT. I rather like the foggy version better, too. It's an interesting effect and was pretty cool to see in person as well.
January 4, 200619 yr Oy, what an ugly skyline. Great panoramas though. Harvard Square is a pity. It once had all these eclectic shops and such and they had to fuck it up by putting Papyrus and J Crew in...

January 4, 200619 yr Lovely photos, but my favorite skyline pano was the last. You're right ColDayMan. For an older city, you'd think they'd have at least one large, classic skyscraper, like a Terminal Tower, Leveque Tower, Chrysler Building, Tribune Tower etc etc. Nothing like that stands out.

January 4, 200619 yr Well, they DO have two prominant older buildings but they certainly do not dominate it's bulky, boxy skyline. But then again, we all know how NIMBY Boston was/is...

January 4, 200619 yr Yeah, Boston's skyline is not the most attractive. But it looks nice at night, when you see the lights instead of the buildings. :wink:
January 13, 200619 yr great Boston pics.....can't beat the colonial architecture that it offers....cool fog shots as well.
