I wanted to thank you for taking the time to leave a suggestion about the night shots. I like to take pictures, but I'm not really into photography (I wouldn't know how to change the ISO setting, too lazy to even read the manual that came with my camera) plus my blog is not about photography, it's about Boston. I do try to take decent photos of the city, but what I really want people to notice is what I try to show through my photos and the accompanying captions/links.
The three night shots I recently published are the fist nigh shots I ever took, really. It was a glorious Friday night and it just felt like such a shame not to take a few pix and I don't even own a tripod. I think I was very lucky that these pix actually turned out half decent, I honestly didn't think they would.
I see so much beauty around me. Everyday people doing everyday things are all beautiful. When I visit a new city or plainly go around my own, it is the people in their natural self who carry the character of the city with them that attract my attention. Everyone takes pictures of that quaint building or that historic monument. They are the lifeless parts of a city that give a city only structure and form. People give life to a city. With my label: Portraiture, I attempt to capture this very beauty in its nascent form, sometimes unawares of the prying lens.

Hi Shek,

Thanks again.
Cheers.
Of course, if you ever do come to Boston for a visit, I wouldn't mind taking a few photography lessons from you. ;)
This is nice Shek. Something like in my style :-)
WoWWW...this is a simply beautifully captured shot, Abhishek!
Simply AWESOME!
