Ok it's looking now like i'll miss the gloucester portion of the meet. But i don't want to miss the boston portion. As far as knowing Boston, i might as well be a cab driver/tour guide.

Suggestions for getting into Boston:
Wellington Station(Orange Line), near 93 and Rt. 1.
You can take the orange line into the city and meet me/us at State Street which is just a short walk to the Boston Harbor Cruise Lines to check out the Islands, OR, is a great starting point to go around Boston.

Here is the address/mapquest to Wellington station.

Also, i have several places around Boston i can show people. I'm not a huge sunset fan in Boston only because the skylines isn't very inline with where the sun sets (If that makes any sense), but for shooting cool subjects and generally getting into areas that most people don't , i'm your man. Also, since many of you here may not know me, search on threads started by my username. You can see some of my work. I hope to see you all in Boston tommorow. I'll pm a few of you my cell # to try and sync up.

BTW- Wellington is perfect if coming from Gloucester because you take 128south to rt.1 south (danvers) and head down until you see rt.16 east/everett/medford. It's a straight shot from Glouster and gets you close to the city.

Apologies to hornyturbo and mumbles for axing the nightshoot, it was a long day and i guess we ran out of steam. But it was a great outing today and maybe we can meet up again specifically for night photos.

Check out bluej511's link for a collection of more shots.

Oh so you guys never met up for the night shoot, i guess it must have been very tiring by the end of the day. I myself was starting to feel a bit tired by the time i left in afternoon, all day shoot would be tough.

We should definetly plan our next meet at dusk and shoot into the night. We'll all benefit from mumbles fantastic expertise in night photography :)

Well Daman, we didn't do very much shooting after you left! Headed into town, had lunch at this nice italian cafe then over to the Lone Gull for a nice chat over coffee. When we eventually headed back to our cars, Hiro and Carrie left, so did Vic. Ryan, Vera and myself drove to Manchester for ice cream and a walk around the waterfront for a bit.

It's a nice place for photography, maybe we can go back there some other time.
