He moves in mysterious ways

Boston's Hancock Tower as Star Wars light sabre. The view from the front porch late afternoon with East Boston's "affordable" housing in the middle ground.

"We may have to put up with truck traffic, but who wants to live on a residential street," comments Tuck re the tradeoffs of living on a working waterfront. Even as we blog, an early-spring thunderstorm is rumbling off in the distance.                      

Could anything be sweeter from the front porch than the steeple -- center of photograph -- of Charlestown's St. Francis de Sales?

Update: "You make such INCREDIBLE pictures out of what, to the lame eye, would go unnoticed" says our imail correspondent.

Your photography is first rate and I agree about not living in the "norm" - I live in the woods more or less. It's a residential street but it has huge lots and backs up to a train right-of-way that is busy all the time (which I love). Tons of trees, lots of critters for Sam the magnificent to yell at from the safety of the (screened) deck and right now, allergy symptoms galore and who cares!
