The Boston fireworks that weren't

Well, I went out to shoot Boston's fireworks last night. There was a thunder cell passing over the city, and I was on the highest ground in the city. The Park Rangers closed the park and had everyone leave because of the storm coming in. They also temporarily evacuated the main viewing site.

Well the show went on, but I had already left. Turns out that about an hour after I left, two people got hit by lightning. Yikes.

Anyway, I got a few shots of small fireworks before I packed it up.

Sunrise from the bottom of the harbor

There is a sandbar that runs between Squantum and Thompson Island in Boston Harbor. At low tide, the bar is exposed, and you can walk across it. This particular day, the sunrise coincided with low tide, and a couple of fellow photographers braved the middle of the night to go out to catch the sunrise from the bottom of the ocean.
