In My Opinion two stunning pieces of architecture, up there with the best skyscapers in the world.

My best mate lives in Rockport Ma, I've loved my time visting the area and the City of Boston and would go back there in a flash :)

Wonderful shots. Wouldn't mind seeing them in B&W. Love the perspective. I have some nice ones from a very similar angle from here in Chicago. Great job!

Beautiful shots Scottie, you have really shown the height of those buildings.

Thanks Sandy, these shots came out great, I think the reason for this was that I was able to isolate the subject in it's own frame.

Great shots Scottie, cool perspective. I like the b&w's the best, especially the first one.

Thanks Guys :)

I do like to visit Boston for Urban photography, NYC is great too but Boston seems a little more spacious than Manhattan

You lucked out. I was in Boston in August and when I was getting ready to snap a shot from across the street, a security guard at the base of the building said no. I was trying to catch another building's reflection off the windows.

The next day, I took this:

Very nice shots, BuggB! I especially like the BW conversion of the first shot. Work on it more, bring out the contrast and detail of the clouds and this will be an incredibly dramatic shot.

Thanks again everyone :)

BB to be completely honest the B&W conversions took me all of 2 minutes. I didn't have the conversions on file just made them up on request.

If you have the time I'd be interested in your version and how you got there, I'm a PS Elements 4 Newbie :)
