This is a very nice picture. I like the way you look at things and take your shots ... specially when I know you also have the same thing that I've D50 and the 50mm prime. Still you manage to make so much better pictures than I can .... Thanks for the inspiration.

I love the way the bokeh flows from the tree towards you.

Love it...the color, the twinkly lights, the quote. Definitely frameable.

impressive shot on many levels. the lights popping out of the twilight blue sky is exceptional. masterful photograph.
i see you are digging the 50mm F1.8. certainly next on my "gotta get one" list. B&H?
sidebar: i think we need a Boston Flickr show in some hall someplace. just a thought but why not?
take care B.

you make boston look pretty.

Thanks everyone for the great feedback, I'm glad you like.
@daviddesign09: I am loving the DOF control with the 50mm F1.8 lens. It also allows me a bit more time these days after work to snap stuff (like this photo) because of the crazy amount of light it allows into the sensor of the D50 - you should snag it, a very special person gave me mine for my b-day for a sweet deal of around $60. What do you mean by "B&H"?
@MPEC*: Thanks I'm glad you enjoy, there are some other folks that grab beantown's beauty damn well. You should check them out.

Grade C (from the www.flickr.com/groups/reportcard/ group)I guess I find the orbs and the large black area a bit distracting.
jinxedjohn [deleted] (74 months ago | reply)
I like the picture, but I don't feel it is a high score in my book because the close lights with all of the darkness just bothers me.
Grade B- (from the www.flickr.com/groups/reportcard/ group)

Your images are so beautiful. I am really annihilated. Excellent relation between the texts and the images. Guessed right metaphor of James Turrell: "Comemos la luz, la bebemos por nuestras pieles".
Great work. Among the most interesting thing I dress in Flickr, technically and intellectually.
