I love walking around. If it weren’t for the camera, you might say it’s aimless wandering, which in and of itself is still pretty cool. But add a camera to the mix and I could walk all night. On this particular night, if it hadn’t been so cold, I just might have.
Jeff Engel and I met up in downtown Boston and began our trekking, with him as the guide, showing some of his favorite haunts when he goes out snapping. This image came at the very end of the night, taken at a parking garage he’s fond of.
I think in any other context, with maybe the exception of architecture, admitting being fond of a parking garage might raise a few eyebrows. But again, add a camera to the mix and there’s a whole bag of justification. This is one of mine.

I forgot ( or don’t remember? ) that you shot color. I’m so used to seeing you shooting b/w on the Yashica. This photo is so good… I love the contrast. You made a great image with impressive dynamic range without saturating too much either. It’s got a real grit, almost as if it was fast color film, like 1600 or higher.
