Ugh. I just spent close to an hour trying to figure out what flickr plugin to install for my blog. I wanted to install slickr, which actually looks really damn good but I couldn’t get it to work properly. So instead, I had to settle for Flickr Photo Album, which is ugly as hell but I guess it’ll have to do for now.
So anyway, below are some pictures from this weekend. I shot about 450 pictures and only came away with 65 that I’m satisfied with. Click on any of the pictures to go to my flickr album, or just click here.
Me.
Street performers outside of Faneuil Hall.
Some crazy street sign I saw while walking the Freedom Trail.

At the aquarium.
Prudential Center.
It was a very fun trip, although my overall impression of Boston was that it was not very impressive. I wish I had more time to really soak in the history, but since we only stayed for 3 days, it was a very superficial view of the city. I wasn’t impressed with the food we ate, but it could just be that we ate at mediocre restaurants. Most of the time I was running around Boston with a 70-200mm lens, with the exception of the aquarium where I used a 10-22mm. And when I say “running around,” I literally mean running around. Some shots are just really difficult to take with a 70-200, which forced me to run really far back in order to take the shot. My friends who weren’t taking pictures were also leading the way, so I spent most of the time snapping away and running to try and catch up with them.
Good trip, good times.
