My Boston Trip

A week after my California trip, my sister and I went to Massachusetts to stay at my cousins house. During our stay, we visited Boston and walked around the city. I find that Boston is so different than San Francisco (Read My Cali Trip to know what I mean). 

First stop was this monument. Boston was founded in 1630!

This was taken at the Boston harbor. It was really nice because there were rows of those nice apartments. (They look like apartments, or they could be shops.) This is a really nice picture. It's got the light black border, with vibrancy filled throughout.  

This was taken about 10 feet behind that previous picture. I took the previous picture on a sidewalk, right next to the waters. So right behind the sidewalk is a water fountain. And right next to the water fountain, there was this pile of dirt. So this is also another nice picture because you can see the water drops from the fountain with the dirt mush in detail. 

Now I know a lot of these are nature pictures, so this is some plant which looks nice in the sun. I photoshopped this quite a bit actually. Alot of contrast, vibrance, exposure, and shadows.  

This is quite a confusing picture right? Twigs at the top and the sun at the bottom. Well to clear things up, this was taken at a small stream. The stream wasn't too flowy, so you could see the reflection of everything above. Which is why you can see the sun at the bottom...because it is a reflection. It's quite different...and confusing. 

This was taken at the same place. Actually if you look at it, it does look like a reflection. But, these were just some branches which looked nice in the sun. Just that one branch up front looks like the sun is x-raying it. 

This is one of my favorites. You have these two flowers and a wooden background. It really does look cool because it's all so vibrant and clear. 

This is also another cool one. Actually, the waters look so soft. What I mean by that is that there is no detail in the water. It just looks so plain with no dimension. Which was actually no photoshopped. It was all natural. Plus, this was taken at a dock, which is why these rusty chains were there. I tried straightening tihs picture, but the chains and the wood weren't aligned which is why I put the wood and chains in this angle. 

Another picture where the water looks so soft. And even the rocks right next to it looks soft. And it was all natural. 

This is one of my very favorite ones. It looks so dreamy and realistic at the same time. Dreamy because it just looks like some made up place. Like some faraway place deep inside of the woods. (Even though there is a bench.) It looks realistic too because pf the reflection on the stream. Also, the waterfall looks so soft too. no edges as it falls down the small cliff. It just looks so cool!

This was a different picture of the water. The water in air just looks so cool. 

This is a reflection on the waters of the woods. You can tell it is because you can see the small leaves on the water. 

I know that this post has a lot of nature pictures, which is actually a lot harder to write about.
