Brookline at night

[urbpan]

With Maggie out of commission, Alexis and I aren't going for our usual twice daily dogwalks together.  There's more that's sad about that than good, but one good thing is that when I do walk Charlie, I'm free to meander and stop when I see something I think is interesting.  Last night I decided to monkey around with the settings on my camera and take some nighttime pictures of my neighborhood.  I think it's a mixed bag, and probably kept more pictures than I should have, but I like the less good ones for the weird details they contain.  I like that you can see the housing complex right up behind this ball field and its bright lights, for example.


The tracks of the D line.


The Doorways of Brookline can be even more interesting in context.






The lights behind this house are from Northeastern University's playing field.










I think I posted a photo of 23 in a previous Doorways of Brookline post.

I like night pictures.

I like these, especially the little hook of branch in the first one and the one with the green building and the football goal post, and also the backlit house and the liquid looking dog.
On my camera there is a way to correct for the weird streetlight color by using the white balance. I only mention it because it took me about a year to find it so maybe it'll save you some time.
