Description

Bench with a View

The other night I was at Piers Park in East Boston to shoot some skyline shots during sunset and blue hour.  I got the shots I wanted but, on the walk back to my car I found some other scenes I liked very much as well.  Throughout the small park there are benches that offer nice views of the harbor and Boston.  I particularly liked this one so, I stopped and shot some frames with my Fuji XE2.  Given the rich blacks, the whites, and the fine detail, I knew right away it would make for a very nice BW scene.  

After I took a few shots, I spent some time sitting quietly on the bench looking out at the city.  The night was very quiet, very warm, and very still.  It is a wonderful and rewarding thing to create images such as this but, just like any other special moment, make sure you stop and take some additional time for yourself to just enjoy the view.  I sat here for a good long while.
