Our dream vacation… Boston, where you can capture some amazing urban photography surrounded by historic locations and buildings. My wife and I had never been to any of the New England states. This was genuinely a dream vacation. While in Boston, we saw many historic places. I captured a lot of photos around Boston. Some were good, and as is the course, some were not so good. It happens.

On a walking tour, we visited the Granary Burial Ground, the Massachusetts State House, the Old South Meeting Hall, the Old North Church, the Old State House, and Paul Revere’s House.

I enjoy finding great abandoned urban architecture like this one. Check out my Abandoned Places and Things gallery at Fine Art America. Many times, while going into the La Costa restaurant, I saw that building and have been planning on photographing it. Today, that plan has become a reality. I am happy with how this one turned out. Emmett is such a rich environment for fine art photography. You will find old city streets, industrial and urban landscapes, historic architecture, and…
