3 images from Beacon Hill:
Beacon Hill is a historic neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It is a neighborhood of Federal-style rowhouses and is known for its narrow, gaslit streets and brick sidewalks.
The cobbled streets are very appealing to a tourist, but probably wildly impractical to the local residents.
Intersection of Charles Street and Mount Vernon Street. Gary Drug co. and 7-11 are still there after taking a quick look at Google Maps. 🙂 B&W conversion in Lightroom.
Continuing my occasional series of digitising my negatives from my time studying and working in Boston in 1998. I was using a Pentax film camera and Kodak Gold 400 film.

I was in Porto (Portugal) in four or five years ago, and saw some of the very narrow streets in Europe, was a pleasant town, but at night, these narrow streets looks kind of scary to me.

Looks can be deceiving – like a scene from an old b&w movie.
Lovely. Where do people park their cars?
“Elsewhere”. 🙂

Great photograph, what kind of camere that you use???
It was a Pentax film camera. The model might have been an Optio.
As always, terrific photos. I’ve nominated you for the Best Moment Award. If you’d like to accept – you’ll find it at http://sheridegrom.wordpress.com.
Thank you very much Sheri. I’m honoured that you would nominate me.
I really appreciate this, but as I have told others, please understand that I prefer not to accept awards at this time.
Lovely pictures of Boston. I never, ever knew it looked like this.
I found you through Sheri de Grom. She’s right. I like it.
