Abandoned Armstrong Factory
This truck chassis and other assorted debris are scattered behind the old Armstrong flooring plant in Braintree.
The property seems to be under renovations to convert the building to mixed retail and residential by FX Messina. It's an awkward lot as it's hemmed in by an active commuter rail line, the Monatiquot River, and the mill pond that is formed by the dam under the building.

Elm St Cemetery False Color IR
Located on Elm St in Braintree, this cemetery has graves going back to the founding days of the town. Many of the stones are well over a century old.
This shot is a false color conversion from infrared.

Monatiquot River
This spot on the Monatiquot River is hidden between a busy street and an apartment complex. Driving by, you might not ever know this was here unless you specifically went looking for it like I did.
The water is low now since its the beginning of summer, but that turns out to be a good thing since the falls are under water when the water level is higher.

Rasta Joe's BBQ backstage grilling
Each summer, the Phantom Gourmet has a BBQ Beach Party on Government Center in Boston.
They bring in 10-12 BBQ teams for 5 days of BBQ from all around the country, and one team from Australia (I had a pulled pork sandwich from the Aussie team. Very tasty).

Waterlily
The water lilies are just starting to bloom at Pond Meadow Park. This was from overhead looking down off the flood control dam.
