John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum (3 of 3) - Boston (Oct 1988 / 22 Aug 2011)

John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum (*) - Boston (*) [Mon 22 Aug 2011]

The Museum had not changed too much in 23 years since I was last there on my first visit to Boston in Sep 1988. This is my favourite photo from both visits. I love the complexity, contrast, colour, light and mostly the shadows on the white concrete wall to the left.

The way I see has changed a lot since those early days when I travelled with Pentax K1000 that was a gift from my Family for my 21st birthday back in 1981. I still have the K1000 and it would be fun to get it out and shoot a few rolls of film to see what comes out.

Love my little Canon S95 (*) [the most recent version being the Canon S110 (*)] which I bought in Jan 2011. It has taken just over 22,000 photos and is still going strong. It (*) has been to New Zealand (*), USA 2011(*), Hong Kong 2012(*), Korea 2012(*) and  Japan 2012(*). It fits easily into my pocket and it goes everywhere with me. I have recently printed a few of the photos to 30x20 inch (*) and they are crystal clear.

Do Not Enter / One Way - Commonwealth Ave and Hereford St / Back Bay (Fri 19 Aug 2011)

Do Not Enter / One Way - Commonwealth Ave and Hereford St / Back Bay (Fri 19 Aug 2011)

AMTRAK from New York Penn Station to Boston's South Station. After checking into the Boston Park, we wandered along Comm Ave up towards Mass Ave. A dinner stop at a Thai Restaurant and back along Boyleston after trying some frozen yogurt - some vague recollections of those big transition days where you have just become familiar with New York and then it is time to start all over again..

One year ago today.
