An Icy Charles *E#3
When I went out for my Monday Evening Walk, the Charles River in Boston was mostly ice. It was an interesting sight for such a large river to be icy, but it was also really cool
This shot was taken from the river walkway in front of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
A special thanks goes out to the ducks for not moving over the course of the 3 exposures
